Been a fan every since her breakout song a couple years ago 'I'm like a bird'...

Enjoyed the fact that she was almost uncategorizable (is that a word?)...

Her new album is a beautiful blend of club, catchy pop melodies and almost a grassroots/jug band feel to it. Sounds strange but it works. I was happier to see her shy away from her techno side and implement more REAL instruments into the mix...you even hear a banjo in a couple songs and it comes off sounding fresh...not hokey.

If you liked her first album, you'll dig this one.
