Editorial Reviews
Catching A Tiger, predominantly recorded with producer Jacquire King in Nashville, TN, is every bit the vibrant debut promised by last fall's Why You Runnin' EP, which introduced the heartland native, California transplant Lissie. Why You Runnin' amasses praise from Paste, Nylon, Filter, Marie Claire, Bust and The Boston Globe just to name a few. Catching A Tiger and it's advance In Sleep EP have already been earning rave reviews for this young songwriter across the pond in the UK (where the album released June 21st), with coverage in The Sun, The Sunday Times, The Mirror, The Big Issue and on the BBC. Lissie's UK press run was capped off last month with a transcendent performance of the hymn-like 'Oh Mississippi' on the legendary Live with Jools Holland. Catching A Tiger also follows her 10-shows-in-4-days sprint at this year's SXSW festival, a run that caught the attention of Pitchfork, Rolling Stone, Perez Hilton and Aquarium Drunkard, among others.

Originality,

This review is from: Catching a Tiger (Audio CD)
FINALLY! And yes it does deserve all caps. This album is so refreshing because the songs are so original and they are written so well. I agree with the previous reviewer in that she sounds kind of like Fleetwood Mac. I loved that group early on. But its not really her voice but the almost orchestral building to a crescendo of the songs that remind me of them. Only a few other bands, that I've heard, have this quality. I think of early U2 and Coldplay. I have some classical training and it is so great to hear modern music with actual quality to it. Buy this album!

Absolutely stunning showcase of talent!!,
This review is from: Catching a Tiger (Audio CD)
Lyrically, tonally, and musically this album is one of the best I have heard in a while. It doesn't do much in terms of reinventing the genre, but Lissie breaths new life into the alt-rocker chick scene. She brings such a passionate resonance to her performance, that you can't help but feel yourself being affected.
In all honesty, this album speaks for itself. Just lay back in the sun with your headphones on and bathe in her warmth.
