New to Laura Veirs? Start here: Saltbreakers will introduce you to a voice that somehow holds both the pop sensibilities of Liz Phair (sans the snark) and elegant beauty of Sarah Mclachlan (minus the over-the-top new agey pretention). Cast a Hook and Don’t Lose Yourself are earnest and upbeat while Drink Deep begs to be played during your Sunday morning lounging, yet its divine production (thanks to Decembrists’ producer Tucker Martine) snaps it free of any typical easy listening typecasting. This album is a gift to any record collection.
