Unchange

"After teaming up with Cody Dickinson of the North Mississippi Allstars for 2020's Love Me Madly, the Nashville-based Sicilia has recruited the services of Music City guitar ace Colin Linden, who produced the album and had a hand in writing five of the songs, and leads a guitar-bass-drums trio with occasional keyboard touches. The result is one of Sicilia's most spare-sounding recordings and one that doesn't sound quite like anything she's done before. That approach puts the focus squarely on the singer, which is not a problem since Sicilia's smokey alto has always been one of the most striking voices in the roots field, and her ability to harness its power lends maximum emotional impact to her performances".

"This album is carefully crafted, leaving no excess. It would benefit from more up-tempo tunes but it more than compensates by positioning the two principals to such profound effect. The minimal adornment allows the sheer power and expressiveness of Sicilia's vocals to completely grab hold. She has never sounded better".

"Climb aboard the roller-coaster of emotion expressed in Unchange. The journey will probably feel longer than the 42 minutes it takes and you'll be a little drained when it's done, but buy a ticket. It's a satisfying ride from beginning to end".
