| Boston Herald Nate Dow 4.18.08 Shotgun Singer (Signature Sounds): A- Perennial Boston Music Award nominee Delmhorst makes a stunning transformation by moving from the countrified folk of her previous three releases to a dreamier and denser sound brimming with atmosphere and muted-but-infectious melodies. Following the recent model of Patty Larkin and Dayna Kurtz, she holed up in a cabin to spark the creative process. With Delmhorst playing 11 instruments and spare contributions from rhythm players and co-producer Sam Kassirer (Josh Ritter), Shotgun Singer is a work of lo-fi beauty, and evidence of an artist taking flight. |
