Is Brandi Shearer evolving into a late-night chanteuse? By the nocturnal sounds of 2009’s Love Don’t Make You Juliet, she’s on a warpath of sorts with the blues, asserting her most tribal instincts on “When You Wake Up” and serving up Van Morrison-like vocal trysts for “How Glad I Am,” while the band crank up or tune down as the occasion demands. Norah Jones’ producer Craig Street keeps things surprisingly dark, tweaking the guitars and keyboards for an added urgency. Shearer herself keeps a seductive eye on things, presenting herself as an extremely versatile singer who spends most of her time on the wrong side of the tracks and the dark end of the street. There’s a cool slink to the muted groove of “I Don’t Love You,” a psychedelic shriek to “Losers and Freaks” and a gentle sway to the ballad “I Just Want You to Love Me” where the chords come crashing down around her.
