PATTY LARKIN
A celebrated "New Wave woman folk singer" and respected guitarist, Patty Larkin is one of the finest contemporary singer-songwriter-musicians of a generation. Over her 10+ CD history, this favorite among critics has honed a reputation as a "musician's musician," working with some of the brightest talents in American music, and performing in such celebrated venues as the Philadelphia Folk Festival, Newport Folk Festival, Falcon Ridge, Kennedy Center and Boston's Symphony Hall. Her provocative, eclectic & compelling music, along with her often spontaneously hilarious performances make this a show you shouldn't miss.
Running the gamut between heart-wrenching laments and sassy shout-outs, Jess Klein's latest effort shows why she ought to be Americana's next big thing.
Klein possesses one of those indelible, passionate voices that that can go from a sultry rumble to a plaintive wail even while grabbing attention on first encounter. It embosses these tunes with an urgency and emotion that makes such songs as Mona and Behind A Veil both vulnerable and vivacious. Tender ballads like A Room Of Your Own and Wilson Street Serenade are the sort of thing that a singer can pin a career on, infused with a bittersweet sadness that rings with universal appeal, the kind every lost lover can obviously relate to. There's also a hint of Bonnie Raitt and Lucinda Williams in her cries of recrimination, but clearly Klein is way too good to be tied to common comparisons. An excellent album, a career-maker in fact, Behind a Veil ought to lift the curtain and bring her success.
