Carrie Rodriguez - Love and Circumstance
Carrie Rodriguez has released a fine new album entitled “Love and Circumstance.”
The album is a collection of cover songs, but don’t let that discourage you. It’s definitely worth hearing and it’s amazing what she does with some of these songs. That statement is not more true than on her renditions of Lucinda’s Williams’ “Steal Your Love,” Gillian Welch and David Rawlings’ “I Made a Lover’s Prayer” and Hank Williams’ “I’m So Lonesome I Could Cry.”
Every time I hear this young woman sing, I can’t help but think she is somebody to watch. Maybe she’ll be a future alt-country version of Lucinda.
