I loved this CD...Tammy Patrick's singing reminds me of James Taylor's music. Immediately appealing, touches you with her voice, beautiful instrumentation...

Tammy's album captures a sense a time and place on the open prairie. Her voice soars over beautifully performed songs about home and family that plants the listener firmly in South Dakota soil. From the hearttugging "Crashin Down on Me" to the rollicking "No Place" Ms. Patrick delivers heart and passion on this 12 song disc. Stick around for an a capella hidden track that recounts a family history. Beautiful music beautifully played. I loved it .

The folky stylings of Ms. Patrick tend to trace their roots to the tradition of top female songstressses the likes of Patsy Cline, Joni Mitchell, and Carol King. While at the same time the vulnerable side of Ms. Joplin (if she had one) is woven in as well. This recording along with the tasteful poetic introduction will transport the listener to another time and place. Those of us with our roots on the farm can smell the fresh-cut hay and the sweet wisps of lilac on the air as we listen. This album is about family and what it means to us. If you ask me this is what we all need right now a little dose of good-old, down-home musical love. The music is tastefully written and executed in a beautiful manner. I truly enjoy this album and believe Ms. Patrick has struck a chord, and it sounds sooooo good to me. I hope she writes a duet someday and needs a partner to sing it with. I'll be the first in line.
