Diane Birch is a breath of fresh air. She is very soulful and charming. I get so tired of the over-produced, half naked, trendy music that is out there. She writes her own music,sings, and plays an instrument. What more could you ask for? She reminds me of Joni Mitchell a bit mixed with Nora Jones, and the like. Her worldly and life experiences definitely show through in all aspects of this album. I think there is a little something for everyone on this album. My favorite songs on the album would be Fire Escape and Fools. I hope to see more of this young lady!

I'd heard good things about this Band..So, I thought I'd get it a go. This isn't my usual style of music, but it wasn't to bad. Most of the songs were very catchy and upbeat with a few ballads thrown in. I was skeptical at first, I must say, I love the music in itself, more than the lyrics to most of the songs. The song Underwater is beautiful. I especially love the guitar work. The music wasn't over powering their voices and they wrote most of the songs on the album. It's refreshing to have a band that can write, sing, and play music. All in all, I think kids or young adults would enjoy it more likely than not. I would love to hear their next album and to see how much they have grown.
What's great about it: Catchy songs, Great guitar work
