Description
On her first solo project since 2007’s Translated from Love, Kelly Willis delivers a vibrant, rich album filled with simple melodies and lyrics that echo rockabilly, Western swing, rock, soul, and country. Willis wrote six of the ten songs, and offers versions of songs written by several others. ‘Back Being Blue’ shimmers with sheer beauty thanks to Willis’ purely blissful vocals, her delightful lyrics and simple, yet complex, melodies, her way with others’ songs, and her ability to make music fun, even when the songs remind us that our hearts might be breaking.
