It wasn't too long ago that I was asked to review the Shawn Colvin LIVE CD. I am embarrassed to admit that I had never even heard of Shawn Colvin.
Really.
I'm a country music lover and and haven't heard of her? What the heck? Then I realize that she will be performing with Buddy Miller, Emmylou Harris & Patty Griffin this summer.. And I feel even more stupid. DUH!
Anyway ... the CD arrived in my mailbox and I immediately placed it in the CD player, curiously wondering who this Shawn Colvin was. Hello?
I can't believe I hadn't heard of her before. I absolutely love the CD and it has a permanent spot in my CD changer.
I am not kidding. And I'm not being paid to say so ...
Her music is of the folk genre. It is so calm and soothing. This disk, which features songs from the past 20 years of her career, is going to be an absolute favorite of mine when it comes to sitting outside with a nice glass of wine to relax and wind down after a hectic day. And in the winter months, perfect for some background music during those warm bubble baths.
I fully recommend everyone check it out. I'm pretty confident you'll thank me for it. For more information, to listen to three songs on the CD and a chance to win an autographed guitar, visit her site.
Be sure to come back here and leave a comment though ... because I have been given three copies of the CD to give away to you! All you have to do is leave a comment to enter. An additional entry will be awarded to those of you who take the time to listen to the three songs she shares on her site, and if you state which song you like best in your comment ... it will count as two.
I will choose the winners on July 22.
