blueVenus: Grin

by Makaila Jones – Bishop O’Byrne High School, Calgary AB Oct 6, 2009

4 stars

Take a ride out of this world to the planet of blueVenus.

On arrival to blueVenus, be prepared to be black-holed into an album of refreshing, transcending and hypnotic music. Accompanying the jazz vocals of Toronto-based lead singer Andrea de Boer, are her Latin violin and the captivating guitar chords of husband guitarist Devrim Eldelkli. Also added to the cultural mix are some German lyrics and rap. Grin was dubbed “One of the best albums I have heard in a long time,” by L. Stu Young (producer of greats such as Tina Turner and Prince). So jump into your rocket ship and take the journey to blueVenus, because there’s no lack of musical adventure awaiting you!

Makaila’s fave track: Raining Gold Stars
