Chastity Brown - Silhouette Of Sirens [CD]

2017 release. An artist who can plumb the depths of sadness in a single note, then release it in the very next breath, Chastity Brown melds folk, pop, soul and gospel on Silhouette of Sirens, weaving together a poet's lyrical ear and a raw soul-laid-bare quality. The album's 10 original tracks introduce us to an exciting new voice - a songwriter of power and conviction who isn't afraid to bare her heart as she sings of heartbreak, need and love. With an electrifying voice that thrums with emotion, she creates moods by layering her sprawling melodies over pulsing rhythms and soaring choruses. Raised in Tennessee, she now calls Minnesota home. As a bi-racial woman she writes from the cultural experience and perspective of "being just as much one thing as the other... The feeling of being within, yet apart." Straddling worlds and musical genres, Brown's emotionally charged songs are unforgettable and transforming.
