Every blues collection has a couple in it that get played more than the rest. This is one of those; winning the category of ‘Best New Talent’ at the 2005 Australian Blues Music Awards and a finalist for ‘Best Female Vocal’. “Piper has the kind of voice that lulls men to their doom. It’s soft and sweet when it wants to be, scared and vulnerable a moment later, then ripping through you like a razor … Piper commands songs, utterly.” Jeremy Loome, The Edmondton Sun. Her voice sits very well with the style of music presented here and musically, there are a lot of stand out tracks on this offering. A very great debut album from a very talented lady.
