Description

Born in Italy of Sicilian-American and a Guatemalan heritage, now based in Nashville by way of Los Angeles, Cristina Vane was reared on pre-war American blues by artists such as Skip James, Robert Johnson and Blind Willie Johnson laced with Appalachian melodies. Feeling the need for a creative spark, Vane set off on a five-month cross-country tour, couch surfing and playing everywhere from small bars to backyards. This debut album is the end product of those experiences and the musical influences picked up along the way.

Featuring twelve original tracks, this mellow, melodic CD is perfect for taking the scenic route. With vocals reminiscent of Norah Jones, Sheryl Crow, and a young Bonnie Raitt, Vane lulls us into a dreamy mood, no matter which places we dream of. What the album lacks in edge and volume, it makes up for in casual, lighthearted atmosphere and gorgeous guitar all around.

A stylistically eclectic and beguiling Americana album that speaks of hope, longing connection and wonder, seen through Vane’s lens, the road to “nowhere” may be both daunting and inviting, but it is most assuredly lovely. As the Talking Heads said, come along and take that ride.
