This review is from: Dreamer's Book (Audio CD)

Kendall Jane Meade has put out two efforts before this: the ep Electric Poems and one full length, "Follow The Sound". Each of these recordings displayed the songwriting prowess that has grown into what has resulted in "Dreamer's Book", an album that towers above any other released in 2004. From the opening track, the gorgeous "Bluebirds In Heaven", to the mid-tempo rock song "Turn Off/Turn On", Meade creates each song like it's a page in a book that you simply can't put down. Perhaps the album's title is apt. You won't find anything finer than this album this year.

"Singer/songwriter Kendall Jane Meade is Mascott. She makes sweet music-not to be confused with saccharin-sweet music. Her debut full-length, "Follow the Sound" (released four years ago on Le Grand Magistery), was knee-deep in Dusty Springfield-hued sensibilities. Though still a sentimentalist at heart, "Dreamer's Book" finds the artist bridging the gap between Aimee Mann-styled folky rock ("Turn Off/Turn On") and the rich sonic textures of Cocteau Twins ("Time Waits"). From one song to the next, Mascott enchants. "He's not as blind as he could be/He doesn't know he's one of three/And I chose him like/He chose me," she sings in the oh-so-spry "Kite," which fondly recalls such glistening Petula Clark gems as "Round Every Corner." With sincerity, grace and passion, Meade has created her very own lush life in "Dreamer's Book."
