a Review by Anna Maria Stjärnell
Jo Gabriel's new album is mostly piano instrumentals, but has some vocal tracks as well. There's enough tension to ensure the instrumental tracks are brilliant. Gabriel's a masterful pianist and her tunes are haunting.
"Tinderbox Waltz" is soundtrack music waiting for a film. It conjures forth images of rain-swept beaches and impossible romances.
"Mother May I?" features a strong vocal and a great melody. Jo Gabriel's resemblance to Kate Bush is quite obvious here.
The title track is short, but still strong. It's atmospheric and fluent.
"7 Little Secrets" is a soft ballad with Gabriel lending her most evocative vocal to some suggestive lyrics.
This is a lovely album that s should give you a strong reason to investigate Gabriel's music
