Although she has back-up, Larson is a one woman band playing guitar, banjo, mandolin, flute or sax depending on the track. I put on the disc thinking Jewel or Chantal Kreviazuk, but what I heard seemed more like vintage Joni Mitchell. Think less pop influence, more folk influence, with some classic country flavour mixed in for good measure. Every song is a little slice of life, like track 6-“Java Junkie,” which makes a hoedown out of that morning coffee fix. For the record, the Parental Advisory Warning refers to track 8-“Party,” which contains some rather frank language concerning the matter of doobies. Hit “skip” if the kids are around.
