Polenzani calls this CD, "A collection of intimate, misfit home recordings."

In fact, it is her strongest work to date.

Her voice is front and center where it belongs. The instrumentation always complements the song, as opposed to becoming it. Her writing is dead-on in both economy and mysticism. She manages to always sound like she is imparting knowledge.. perhaps she is. From quiet, meditative and introspective (Blue Angel, And These Hands) to hard edged rock (Expain it to me) to unbelievably catchy (Married Man) this CD is a really great listen, start to finish. Again and again..
