    Brigitte DeMeyer surrounds herself with some big names, including Steve Earle, Buddy Miller, Daniel Lanois, but the most significant contributor is drummer/producer Brady Blade. His thoughtful arrangements, built upon organic and atmospheric elements, provide the perfect setting for DeMeyers soulful vocals. The results sound something like Sheryl Crow backed by Emmylou Harris Spyboy band (no surprise considering Blade served as Spyboys drummer). While DeMeyer is Bay Area-based, her music is rooted in the American south. You can hear it in the gospel-infused Honey Darlin, the banjo-paced country-rocker Mamas On A Mission, and the stirring album closer Ruby. DeMeyer also commands attention on two slow, contemplative numbers, Good As Gone and the title track. Impressive from start to finish, this disc should be DeMeyers breakout effort.
