a Review by Anna Maria Stjärnell
Nell Bryden's debut comes on like it means business.
From the opener "Daylight" it's obvious she has a
distinctive voice and tunes to match.
"Red" is an atmospheric rocker with poetic lyrics. Its
intensity is matched by Bryden's strong vocal.
"Meridian" is a ballad with a pleasant country tinge.
Bryden handles that style well also.
"Jetblack Sunrise" borrows the words from Walt
Whitman's "Leaves of Grass" and adds a strong melody.
"White Rose" is a great song that features a powerful
guitar line and a feisty lead vocal.
"View of the East River from Atlantic Avenue" is as
evocative as the title implies.
"Day for Night" is a wonderful debut.
