Review Text
Having already drawn national attention for her introspective songcraft and distinctive vocal power, Hayley Coupon is poised to reveal the true scope of her talent with her highly anticipated debut album, Wire and Rope. Set against a spare yet surprisingly lush backdrop provided by Grammy Award-winning producer Craig Street (Norah Jones, Cassandra Wilson) and a cast of studio all-stars, songs like the finely etched "All You Gave" and the first single "Curse Me" bend diverse musical genres into new forms to suit the astonishing gravitational force of Coupon's widescreen vocals and equally potent lyrical voice. With Wire and Rope ready at last for it's long awaited arrival, Coupon plans to herald the album with a series of live shows in New York and Los Angeles, followed by a national tour accompanied by the multi-talented David Garza.
