Crooked Mile is the official debut cd of Trish Murphy, except for a hard to find demo tape which futures some songs (but in a different arrangement) of this cd. Before recording solo she performed with her brother Darin (also worth checking out his solo albums) as a duo "Trish and Darin". On this cd you'll find 11 great songs, well written, well crafted and above all, sung with passion and a great voice that you will immediately like. Rather original, but if you want a reference, it is best compared as "Cheryl Crow with a country twist", or the female Bruce Springsteen meets Tom Petty and Jewel.... The songwriting on this cd is really cinematical. Murphy's songwriting is direct. She's a storyteller who likes to draw characters and set scenes rather than tell the whole plot. For example the song "Date With an Angel" could cast Murphy as the missing link between Bruce Springsteen and Lucinda Williams. Safe buy if you like any of the other mentioned artists in this review, or like a bit of rock and a bit of country.Read full review
