There are so few new talents out there that are really captivating. Devon Sproule is one of them. Her lyrics and phrasing are a lot of fun to listen to . There is depth, wisdom and sincerity. I like every song on this CD, no exceptions. My two favorites are "Virginia Block" and "Honey, let's go out", but they are all truly great. I also saw her perform these live in cville soon after the CD came out, it was a wonderful show. If you live in the area and you get the chance, go and see her.

4.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Album, July 17, 2008

This review is from: Keep Your Silver Shined (Audio CD)

I came to this album through Paul Curreri's album 'Songs for Devon Sproule' and I'm glad I did. This is an album full of heart-warming songs with influences varying from American folk, bluegrass, country and jazz. While their musical styles differ Devon's crystal clear voice is very reminiscent of Gillian Welchs', this is very evident on the last track `The Weeping Willow'. For me the title track, 'Keep Your Silver Shined', is the standout track on the album. Buy it and enjoy.

What a beautiful voice, but there is much more here. Devon plays a fine guitar, the rhythmic accompaniment is well thought out and tight. The lyrics are sweet, poetic, friendly, and kind! The chord progressions are complex and jazzy without being over the top.

This recording is difficult to match. I highly recommend it.
