"Ellis-Bextor returns to Harcourt with Familia (released September 2), an autumnal record, literally and figuratively. The crisp arrangements are organic, built on bass, guitar, piano and drums. But Harcourt and Ellis-Bextor reference a range of pop styles with details like the bubbling synths on "The Death Of Love" and the power chords that launch the album's galloping opener, "Wild Forever." The widescreen love song "Crystallise," which ranks among Bextor's finest, has a lush chorus ribboned with violin ... What Familia ultimately recalls is the era of female singer-songwriters. Like predecessor Carly Simon, Ellis-Bextor knows that a lifelong career is built on a certain amount of risk-taking. "Why be so ordinary? Why just conform?" she questions on "Wild Forever." Familia, released on her own record label, is the sound of an artist making the music she wants to make".

"Familia is a successful new release by Sophie Ellis-Bextor. In it, she showcases her skill in writing music in a variety of styles, while showing restraint in the balance of instrumentation (using acoustic, electronic and more traditional timbres). The Latin American influence on the music is evident without becoming a caricature, which can happen if the music is not well crafted by a meticulous musician. Throughout the album Ellis-Bextor displays her versatility as a singer, her distinctive voice delivers the lyrical content meaningfully and with purpose. Familia is a highly enjoyable album!".
Vurdering 4/5.
