iTunes Review
Mariee Sioux’s studio debut is an enchanting listening adventure of earthy folk tunes enveloped in spiritual poetry. Faces In The Rocks abounds with Native American themes and imagery as lyrics of tribal people, nature and the universe unfold from Sioux’s songs. “Wizard Flurry Home” starts the journey with delicate acoustic arpeggios moving under haunting notes from a Native American redwood carved flute played by Grammy nominee Gentle Thunder of the Cree tribe. Sioux’s strong but pacific voice floats and soars, dancing around the notes coming from the pedaled picking of her guitar. And when she harmonizes with herself, the two tracks of recorded vocals sometimes braid together so perfectly that a third harmonic overtone wisps out from between them, especially on the lilting lullaby that is “Friendboats.” She invents her very own country (and cosmos) in “Bravitzlana Rubakalva” as her father Gary Sobonya accompanies her on mandolin. “Flowers and Blood” is a beautiful way to end a bewitching album.
Customer Reviews
Walks in Beauty
This hooked me after downloading the first two songs for free from a blog. I just needed more after that. There is nothing too difficult or "freak-folk" about this. But there seems to be so much intention put into this music - it just moves me. The melodies are simple and all have a similar sound, but if you like the sound, how sweet it is. It feels effortless, like a breath of verdant air in the world of new-folkies who sometimes try a bit too hard. Thank you Marie Sioux, for this simple and magestic gem.
Captures Spirit Of Native America
Though art and religion are 2 words that have no equivalents in native languages, Mariee Sioux has found a way to provide both masterfully. This album is soulful and intuitive and I will knock on the next tree I see to give thanks that her talent has touched me.
Creation
This album smells like clean soil taken respectfully and with great care from the earth. Mariee has truly created art that is as organic as the autumn leaves. Relax and have a cup of tea; watch the world rise and collapse for you will not want to move.
