Luisa Lopez Lake Fever Session

I’m glad to see that the Lake Fever Sessions are willing to branch out and record sessions from musicians / artists / songwriters / what-have-you that don’t fit into the standard rock / indie-rock mold. Luisa Lopez melds country-western and soul into some dense tales of life. Joe Colvert says it best in his writeup:

These songs get to the core of what makes us human: love, lovers, loss, pain, redemption… the heaviest of subjects. These songs, well, they come with a burden.

You can hear that burden in her voice and it’s that legitimacy that keeps you listening.
