Description:
White Light is the latest release from Virginia singer/songwriter Sarah White. Like her previous Jagjaguwar release Bluebird, cleverly slated as "not quite country, not quite folk, not quite rock," White`s sound remains difficult to pigeonhole. The genre is rock, but with a strong dose of country throughout. Some songs veer towards punk, while others are melodic waltzes. This recording with her stripped-down band The Pearls (Steve Ingham and Jeffrey Grosfeld) has a simple, natural sound. Bare boned snare, bass notes, and a background of vocals provide ample space for Whites distinctive voice. (Antenna Farm)
