Tracyanne Campbell confronts heartbreak like a grown-up on Camera Obscura’s fourth outing. Their swirling melodies conceal lyrics that suggest a weariness bordering on a litost not seen before. “James” and “My Maudlin Career” disarm with sad grandeur; “The Sweetest Thing” and “Honey in the Sun” soar with their best.

Kelli Shaefer’s songs get stuck in my head non-stop. Every other day I find myself waking up with one in there. And that’s a good thing, she’s a talent!

nice pics Chris. Don’t you love it when the artist brings some cool light. It’s a bunch of low hanging fruit after that.
