Description
Renowned vocalist Susie Arioli returns with her newest release featuring guitarist Jordan Officer. This thoughtful collection of timeless, classic songs is both elegant and evocative without sounding pretentious or crass. Featuring six Roger Miller compositions the album avoids overexposed standards, opting instead to mine the underexposed pleasures found in such Miller classics as “Husbands & Wives�, “Less And Less� and “A Million Years Or So.�
Of the remaining five tracks, two are new original instrumentals by Officer; one is a cover of Irma Thomas’ “Ruler Of The Heart� and another is the group’s take on the jazz standard “By Myself�. However, the track that’s sure to win over new fans is the group’s version of the Jimmy Webb classic “By The Time I Get to Phoenix�, a track that beautifully weds their sound with such genre-defying Americana/roots artists as k.d. lang, Emmylou Harris, Nanci Griffith and Cowboy Junkies.
