The best kept secret in music

On La Vie en Rouge, long-running Santa Barbara singer-songwriter Kirstin Candy blends diverse styles into a creamy elegance, with a lush poise, like a country singer crossing over to the mainstream in a riverboat. And Candy is crossing over, from what used to be a more confused mélange of genres into a well-shaped entity, where less is more and simplicity is queen. Orange Whip (Santa Barbara) studio's Tom Flowers may have something to do with reeling her in to a place of strength, not to mention the sheer quality of sound on this rich disc. Apart from the artwork, this disc is adult contemporary radio-ready. - Santa Barbara Independent - Duncan Wright - Santa Barbara Independent
