Trophy


Beskrivelse


Review: Sunny Sweeny's salty wisdom and Texas-hewn soprano have never sounded stronger than they do on her anticipated new album. It includes the tracks Bottle by My Bed; Pass the Pain; and Grow Old With Me.

"Some albums cut to the heart, even if they just repeat old truths about the specialness of home, that booze doesn't cure one's ills but sure makes the pain more bearable, life's too short, etc. Or even if the details of the singer's stories don't match one's own because of gender, race, etc. It doesn't matter as the performer delivers observations and feelings with a panache and pride that transcends these limitations. Such is the case with Sunny Sweeney's latest album, Trophy, which comes with the added bonus of a sense of humor and style".

"It's one of Sweeney's greatest strengths as an artist; her songs feel familiar and lived-in without feeling clichéd. It helps that her band has the chops to pull off the punchy southern rock of "Why People Change" as well as they do the atmospheric balladry of "Unsaid" (a song begging for placement in a climactic film scene). But Sweeney remains the star of Trophy. She leads the show as effortlessly as "watching the evening news with a couple of beers," one of many unlikely images on Trophy that Sweeney turns to poetry".

"If there is any justice in the world, one day Sunny Sweeney will become a household name. She's a talent like few others, and has always been unafraid to show her emotions - on all sides. That's just the kind of artist that we keep saying we need in Music City, and she deserves to be front and center!".
