Back On Board song review

Anna Kaye, 2010 (go to myspace).

Anna is the daughter of a good friend of mine, and today I had the opportunity to listen to this lovely song on Myspace.

It's an acoustic, warmhearted gem using the man/person overboard imagery to evoke a relationship.

Anna's voice is warm, accessible, direct.

She's backed by acoustic guitars, a few extra female vocals, and a very catchy riff played on trumpet and sax which morphs briefly into an instrumental.

The lyrical imagery is powerful and effective.

Goodhumoured, unpretentious music, serving as a taster for the EP that is to come - Little Bonfire.

9/10.

In the meantime you can catch Anna at the Gin Room of the Queens Ferry Hotel, Vulcan Lane on Saturday 28th August - doors open at 8pm.

If anyone decides to go, please give me a call and see if I can come!?!

Oh, tickets are $15, which includes the CD.
