Self-released
Weather was born in Minneapolis
but has spent most of her adult life north of Boston. She has been working on her music
since 2012 and has finally been able to get her debut album out.
Having been a cubicle zombie myself at a few jobs that I
have had in the past, I can appreciate the sentiment behind this album. The vocals
and the sound of “Good Morning” reminded me of Lily Allen a bit, but in a good
way. It had that same kind of poppy, peppy sound, but with lyrics that made you
know that this person is more aware than the average person. The biting lyrics
are a definite plus on this all too short album. You can tell that a lot of
thought was put into everything on this album, from the lyrics, the music to
the great production. It also reminded me a bit of Carole Pope from Canada’s Rough
Trade in the expressiveness of the vocals. The whole album is just a great
listen and every track is a definite keeper, the quality behind this release is
amazing.
For a first album, this is just incredible with how well
everything is presented. Most female vocalists are too wispy and boring, this
has power and emotion to it, something rare these days and for one, I’m so glad
that I got the chance to hear this…now you need to get this for yourself…go
ahead, it’s worth it.
