Blue Roses - Blue Roses

This album makes me think of what the Charlotte Churches and Hayley Westenras of the world could do with their (formerly) sweet, young voices besides peddling lowbrow kitsch in the cultural wasteland that is modern day public television music broadcasting. Honestly I don't know much about Blue Roses, or how old their lead singer is, but this is a very pretty record with much to admire--delicate acoustic instrumentation, intimate and homesick lyrics and melodies with understated arrangements and breezy vocal harmonies. This is a very pleasant listening experience. 4/5
