Phoenix-based singer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist Anjanette Indelicato launches her eponymous debut CD, Anjanette, a collection of 9 eclectic tracks sampling a variety of different genres and moods that has been several years in the making.
Fans of Tori Amos will definitely recognize her influence here, in both
style and spirit. Songs like "Amen," "Fire," and "It's You Boy" are built on catchy hooks that would sound right at home on the radio. "Too Late," "Slipping Away," and "Ticket to Heaven" are beautiful, emotive ballads that showcase Anjanette's rich voice. "Definition of Is" and "Thief" are unique and experimental, hard to categorize but easy to enjoy.
And then there's the album closer, "Bleed," which begins with a bit of
slow-burn misdirection but suddenly transforms into a sexy, jazzy, nightclub number unlike anything else on the album. It's a fitting end for a collection that explores such a broad array of musical territory.
These songs each have their own personality and flavor, but also fit
together well as a cohesive whole. Unlike the rough, raw sound that is part and parcel with most DIY releases from newcomers, this debut sounds remarkably accomplished, with each song expertly polished and enhanced by studio musicians. Fans of stylish songstresses like Jewel, Colbie Caillat, Sarah McLachlan, and especially Tori Amos will definitely want to give Anjanette a listen. |
