Erin Bode - Photograph (2010)

2010 release from the St. Louis-based singer/songwriter. The songs on Photograph are at once radio-friendly and instantly singable. They are exuberant and joyful with lyrics introspective, mature and hopeful. There are few journeys more rewarding than finding an artist who can move you, challenge you, change the way you listen to music and then following that artist as they evolve. Beyond a mere change of style or genre, Photograph represents the evolution of a band that began it's earliest days as a jazz combo just a few short years ago, thru infusions of pop and world music influences on their sophomore effort, culminating in a new collection of songs that are equal parts refined song and craftsmanship just as much as they are an homage to the best in Pop music of the last 40 years.
