usually i'm so-so
when it comes to cover albums.
but lovers, let me tell you
charlotte martin's
reproductions
is a stellar achievement.
i cannot get over the tone of her voice.
it's sick!
i saw her in concert two weeks ago
(review pending, obvs)
and she's spectacular live.
songs i love from reproductions
in particular:
pearl jam's
elderly woman behind the counter in a small town
sinead o'connor's
i am stretched out on your grave.
i get chills during that second one.
i am so sure
that my neighbors
can hear me belting them through the walls.
all i have to say about that
is GET USED TO IT PEOPLE!
IT'S THE MIDDLE OF THE DAY.
I AM SO ALLOWED.
reproductions
comes out november 6 on iTunes
i got it early because it was available on her tour.

go listen!
in the mean time
buy stromata
i love that album!
the instrumentation is really different
from what a lot of female singers are doing right now.
this ain't no brit brit, kiddies.
in content nor in form.
you won't be disappointed.
