Album Review

Austin-based singer/songwriter Sarah Sharp has a distinctive voice, an agreeably sharp-edged vocal instrument that adds an element of spin even to songs that in other hands might seem a bit sickly-sweet. Easy points of vocal comparison include T-Bone Burnett, Amy Rigby and the underrated San Francisco-based folk-rock songwriter Sonya Hunter, all of whom have a similar nasal twang. Musically, however, Sharp owes more to Burnett's ex-wife Sam Phillips or even ironic New York jazz-pop chanteuse Nellie McKay: elements of cool jazz, Tin Pan Alley pop, and Magnetic Fields-like indie rock permeate songs like the bossa nova-tinged "Blame It on the Night" and the pretty but tightly wound "Coffee Shop Song." As a songwriter, Sharp is a bit too unformed to sound truly distinctive, but she does sound like more than the sum of her influences, and the best songs on Fourth Person, like the driving, keyboard-led folk-rock of "Can't We Just Love," suggest that this promising artist has the potential to create something genuinely great.

Customer Reviews

Of all the songs to focus on?

"Can't we just love" is my least favorite song on this record. It kind of reminds me of a train wreck. With that said, this is an excellent record with well crafted pop songs and subtle jazz influences. Sara Sharp will only get better with time, keep an eye on this singer/songwriter from Houston/Austin Texas. Ken in Houston

Sarah Sharp is great. I first heard her live in Texas and have enjoyed her music ever since. You get a sense that more is happening beneath the surface than what she is telling you. Im very impressed by all the songs!
