Synopsis

Product Description
Cry Tomorrow is a little gem. As are diamonds. A casually stunning love letter to classic song. An album whose sound recalls 'Loaded' era Velvet Underground tunes alongside The
Modern Lovers and Brill Building pop -- but ultimately all revolves around Stephanie Finch s relaxed, cool, confident presence. Backed by The Company Men: Chuck Prophet, Kelley
Stoltz, and Rusty Miller. Cry Tomorrow is an instant classic.


Stephanie s already sung her roots out with Chuck Prophet. And whispered softly with Red House Painters, on 'Songs for a Blue Guitar' with Mark Kozelek. She also popped up as a
cameo on the odd tribute for Joe South, and on the soundtrack to Sign Of God with Jonathan Richman. (If your cable s paid up, you may have seen her playing Judy Collins in HBO s
Chicago 7 biopic).


Stephanie s butter-wouldn t-melt voice (except when topping apple pie) on one hand, and the Company Men s sometimes raucous but always soulful harmonies on the other - lives at the
heart of all Ms. Finch s songs. It gives Cry Tomorrow a quiet urgency and a unique twist.


The CD (with TV noir jacket art) includes some intriguing covers:
an un-released Randy Newman song, She s the One - (a bent out-take from the short-lived but incendiary TV musical Cop Rock) as well as Ms. Finch s take on the Prophet/Alejandro
Escovedo tune Sensitive Boys -- turn your amps up loud ... I need you more than ever now . It evokes the album s subtle intelligence: a heartfelt ballad given an ironic twist, still bathed in
tenderness.


If Cry Tomorrow were a movie, it'd be a Hal Hartley film - with better jokes. And popcorn you d be willing to share.

CD Reviews

Good fun pop music
Robert M. St John | Dublin, Ireland | 05/26/2010
(4 out of 5 stars)

"I purchased this CD at a Chuck Prophet concert and I have been listening and groovin' to it ever since. There is a sense of real fun in this effort. Many of the songs remind me of the great pop songs of the 60s. Highlights IMHO are Tina Goodbye, She's The One, Count The Days, Wandering Son and All Is Forgiven. Buy this CD you won't be disappointed."
