Barbara Kingsolver says: 'To my mind -- a writer's mind -- Carrie Newcomer is much more than a musician. She's a poet, storyteller, snakecharmer, good neighbor, friend and lover, minister of the wide-eyed gospel of hope and grace. All this, and she comes with a voice that declares: 'Sit down here a minute and listen.' Who could ask for more?' We concur. The sum of Carrie's talents -- some flashingly apparent, some more subtle -- come together and create an artist of bottomless depth, infinite warmth, and a slow-burn intensity. Armed with keen eyes for detail and keen ears for harmony, the songs on her 2000 release are evocative, thought-provoking, and moving.
