This rock driven music album "The Black Letter" is a great debut from
a new band that we are hearing much about these days here in the U.K.
and the U.S. and Canada as well. Eve's Burden
features female singer Sharon Jordan who is a great vocalist, she
sounds like a favorable combination of Ann Wilson, Janis Joplin, Amy
Winehouse and Melissa Etheridge. The awesome guitar work throughout the
album is crafted by producer-guitarist Jerry Leal, the style of which is
reminiscent of Santana, Jimi Hendrix or Led Zeppelin's Jimmy Page. The
group has been rapidly rising ever since they started their musical
voyage together. Eve's Burden has already gained a huge fan following,
and their music is fascinating in that every song tells a story.
The
album has got something delightful as the '80s about the overall sound.
Recorded using a combination of vintage analog tape gear coupled with
an Apple computer, the tone is wonderful, with keyboards, bass, and
drums rounding out the backing instrumentation of the songs and creating
a solid, full and real rock sound.
At first Evs's Burden
seems like a vehicle for the band’s vocalist Sharon Jordan who just
does not sound like a white girl, however that’s a wonderful thing.
Instead, this blues diva and yes, she’s earned that queenly title –
belts it out like a gospel choir soloist on all of these mostly-funky
pop tunes. Upon continued listening however the unique magical uplifting
feeling of their songs begins to shine forth. The songs are quite
lyrical, melodic, and catchy, with introspective, sociological lyrics
capable of entertaining anybody with the magic of real music. The album
is available globally and featured in iTunes as well.
Critics
already applauded the performance of Sharon Jordan saying that it’s not
just another album but "17 Tracks of pure Rapture wrapped up in a nice
little music package" The album is very well recorded and ready for
extensive radio play. The acoustic rock track “Love Keeps Me Hanging On"
is filled with catchy lyrics and nice guitar work which is already a
favorite in youtube. "The Fame Game" is a song about the life of a
breakthrough musician that features memorable lyrics, a catchy chorus
and a harmonica, "Candy Girl "is a solid rock song filled with great
lyrics and hooky guitar work, "Black Lightning" is a dark bluesy hard
hitting guitar anthem. Complete information about the group can be
collected from the band's website- evesburden.com and the many youtube
videos show the raw power of this group even in a live concert setting.
About the Evs's Burden Rock Band
Eve's
Burden hails from California, United States. The album is produced by
Saint Charles Thurman and Jerry Leal. The comment about the philosophy
of their songs from Jerry Leal shows his dedication to the music. He
states that "these days people are bombarded with many negative messages
in music, constant themes of hatred, revenge, infidelity and sadness
bring you down." In producing this record the group decided to weave
positive themes into the music, such as forgiveness, love, overcoming,
letting go and redemption, basically just the opposite. He goes on to
say "many studies have been done showing the effects of music on animals
and even plants wherein joyful and positive sounds have a health
promoting effect and just the reverse is true of harsh negative sounding
music, even the keys of our songs use frequencys designed to bring you
up and not down."
