Title: Haunting Harmonies
Review: This selection of eclectic covers is soulfully rendered by one of the Southwest's most talented exports. Call it alternative country, alternative folk, whatever - Hazeldine's high desert harmonies are brooding, introspective and sometimes (as on track three, Jeff Magnum's "April 8th") verge on eerie. Think Mazzy Star meets Emmylou Harris. There's the mystique of the long dark desert highway in all Hazeldine's music and this CD is no exception. They perform these covers with as much intensity and integrity as their original music. It was recorded during the same session that produced their Polydor European release "Digging You Up" (all original music). If you're looking for something new - a girl band with more soul than spunk, give this CD a try.
