Album Review
In took three years for Nicole Atkins to release a follow-up to her 2007 debut, Neptune City. Much of the interim was spent touring, switching labels, and reassembling her backup band, but Atkins also found time to record this quick EP, which doubles as her final release for Columbia Records. Working with the same musicians who gave Neptune City its nostalgic, Panavision elegance, she sings her way through four covers, only one of which — “Dream a Little Dream of Me” — will be familiar to casual listeners. The others are a bit more esoteric, from Nada Surf’s “Inside of Love” (performed here as a sweeping pop song) to the Doors’ “Crystal Ship,” and they’re performed in the grand Neptune City style, with twinkling piano and strings holding the whole pack together. The centerpiece is Atkins’ voice, a larger-than-life alto that manages to wring originality out of songs that are anywhere from five to 75 years old.
Customer Reviews
Awesome!
I was pretty much blown away by her debut, Neptune City, but this EP gives me even more of a reason. Her voice is always spot on, and she has a unique style all her own.
Nicole Atkins
Nicole, has the most amazing voice in music today! This EP only solidifies her amazing singing talent. In live performance her voice is even more beautiful. Get out and see Nicole and the sea you will be amazed.
A nice EP to hold me over...
I have been a follower of Nicole Atkins for a while now, and was thrilled to find this EP available. I honestly believe her to be one of the most underrated artists out there right now. Her voice is amazing and has a very nice quality to it. She makes music that demands your attention, and even though these are covers, she has given them all new life. I especially adore the version of "Inside of Love" found here. She is working on a new album that is supposed to be more rock oriented, so I'm looking forward to that, but will be enjoying these songs until then!
