Lisa Mitchell is just great.

Her first two Ep's "Welcome To The Afternoon" & "Said One To The Other" both had some amazing tracks on them, but as with most EP's, were lacking a little maturity and experience.

Now with the release of her debut full length album, all those mistakes are fixed. The maturity is there and the songs are crafted perfectly which show her experience.

Now this album is not perfect, one or two of the songs are a little un interesting but the majority are just fantastic. Favourites are: "Neapolitan Dreams, Coin Laundry, Pirouette, Oh Hark"

Well worth the money.

My daughter discovered Lisa Mitchell on youtube. We finally got this album for her for Christmas. Unfortunately, it's not available in the US, so it's a bit more expensive than regular CD's. This is very fun, whimsical, easy to listen to music. Much more intelligent than a lot of other music that typical 14 year old girls listen to. I love the fact that she writes her own stuff and that it's serious, but playful music. Definitely father approved.

I love this record and pretty much anything she has done thus far. She has this brittle old school sounding vibe to her music that permeates it, yet it feels relevant. Songs like Coin Laundry and Red WIne Lips and Valium just have this warm sound that washes over. There is a misstep or two on this record, but it has more solid songs than anyting. I can't wait for more music from this "Wonder" and hope she doesn't change a thing.
