Powerful songs from singer-songwriter Sam Brown

"One of the best singer songwriters on the scene today, Sam Brown moves beyond the "soul diva" stylings of her best-selling debut CD "Stop" with the emotionally turbulent "Box." Songs like "Whisper" and "I Forgive You" have an epic sweep that showcases Brown's powerful multi-octave range while the more introspective "Embrace the Darkness" is one of the most evocative songs on the subject of emotional depression. An important CD from a seriously underrated artist."

"Sam Brown seems to have gone mostly unnoticed by the masses, it's a shame really as she consistently produces some of the most catchy pop songs. With this album Sam returns back to the fore with a collection of sometime great and never less than good songs. Whisper is a beautiful ballad that makes her first hit (Stop!) seems like amateurish ramblings. There are many other outstanding tracks on the album, What's The Use, Intuition, They're The Ones & Box are just a few. Anyone who appreciates good music and has a penchant for modern day singers that can actually sing should check this album out. I would have rated this album higher if it were possible. All I can say is buy it, sit back, listen and enjoy. You won't be disappointed."
