Heard her on KRSH last night... really liked the song "Something to Me" from her latest. She will be in Santa Rosa in October, playing for free.
I'll check her out.

1. Whatever happened to Trish Murphy?

2. Guitar licks are way too Jeff-Lynne-produced-sounding.

3. Apparently this is the only song this gal ever recorded. At least listening to RP.

Wow, only heard this song a million other times by a million other artists. I think they just clone them and give them different names.

sucko-barfo.

Saw her last week in concert in Paris (where she seems to spend a lot of time). Great concert. Just her, the lead guitar player (from Texas) and a long-haired tour manager !

Or "Trouble Over Me". Man, I just love those lyrics. No doubt it's my favorite song of hers.

She's an amazing show live... and yes, her first album is great. Check out "Supposed to Make You Happy"...actually made me cry when I first heard it.

Great voice, but the tune's a bit too twangy. She's better than the genre she's singing in.

I'd agree, except I prefer Tift's vocals. I was listening to Sheryl's debut CD "Tuesday Night Music Club" and couldn't help but notice she seems to struggle to hit a lot of the notes. Tift seems to hit these notes with ease.

I don't think she's dating a member of the US cycling team either.. but i could be wrong (wah wah)

Two things: 1) Tift looks at least 10 years younger (and in my opinion 10 times better) and 2) NEITHER of them is dating a member of the US cycling team. Now. ;-)

Still a likeable tune. (and I like Tift's vocals better, too)

Quite a lovely voice! I can't really place her music into a genre...gotta admire that.

Nice to hear such good song from a more recent artist. Bless her for noting the Joni Mitchell phase (AMG biography). Respect for one's elders is so rare these days. :nodhead:
