  • They Say...

    They don't make too many more beautiful voices in bluegrass and country music than that of Dale Ann Bradley, a true inheritor of the rich, true sound of predecessors like Dolly Parton and Dottie West. As the title suggests, the Coon Creek leader chooses religious-heavy themes for this solo release. While many may be put off by the Christian zeal of the lyrics, it's hard to resist Bradley's gentle phrasing and clear tone (or even that slight "shush" in her S's). The result is not overly kinetic righteousness, but laid-back, universally likable reflection. This is a gorgeously mellow, sometimes upbeat and spirited listen from top to bottom. Highlights include "Clinging to a Saving Hand," "I Pressed Through the Crowd," and the traditional "It's Gonna Rain," which features soulful a cappella work. Bradley co-writes several tracks on the album.
