Review: Shawn Colvin - Live

Tuesday June 30, 2009
Shawn Colvin Live CD CoverShawn Colvin is one of contemporary folk music's finest live performaers. She doesn't dance about or shred on her instrument. Instead, she stands (or sits) still, calmly delving into the deepest - and frequently darkest - reaches of her psyche. With little or no physical affect she delivers pure emotion. When she addresses the audience, it's with wry wit and charming stories. All these things are captured on her latest live album, titled appropriately Live. Read my full review of Shawn Colvin Live.

When I was in college I wanted to be Shawn Colvin when I grew up. :)

I’ll definitely try to pick up this live album!
