Tracy Bonham News (829 words)
Right out of the gate of Tracy Bonham’s debut album for Zoe Records, Blink the Brightest, is a vibrant and yearning song of love’s pining for reciprocation wrapped in gauze of shoe gazer melodies.
Where Bonham is at her best, though, is on the experimental-sounding "Wilting Flower." As her voice pulls away from the music and momentarily flutters adrift, you can't help suspecting that there are a lot of smart music buyers in America ready for an explosion of tightly wound female talent, and that this is their disc.
Blink was funded with money Bonham made from selling her EP on the road while touring last year as a guest vocalist with the Blue Man Group.
Tracy Bonham - Blink The Brightest (Rounder) - MusicRemedy.com, Brings Music to Life (1281 words)
"blink the brightest was completely funded from the money I made selling my EPs on the road with Blue Man Group." She also contributed vocals to two tracks on Aerosmith's 2004 album Honkin' on Bobo.
With her new blink the brightest (Zoë/Rounder, June 21) album, Tracy Bonham cements her status in the first rank of contemporary singer-songwriters.
Unlike Bonham’s first two albums, which were underwritten by Island, her former label, Bonham paid the recording costs of blink the brightest herself with money she’d made from selling copies of her EPs while touring with the Blue Man Group in 2003 (she previously appeared on the group’s album, The Complex).
