Description
Leaving behind her longtime band the Nocturnals — in name, at least; a fair number of the members show up here, including her drummer/husband Matt Burr — Grace Potter also leaves country in the dust on her first solo album, Midnight. Teaming with Los Angeles-based producer Eric Valentine — he’s best known for heavier stuff like Queens of the Stone Age but also has done work with progressive bluegrass band Nickel Creek — Potter dives headfirst into pure pop with Midnight. Midnight bears the same considered construction as her four albums with the Nocturnals; the surface just sparkles a little.
