Madeline - Slow Bang

It is undoubtedly Madeline's voice that sets her apart from other singer/songwriters. As clear and precise as handbells with just the slightest country twang, it's haunting quality is the perfect vehicle for her smart, sensual lyrics. Her 2006 Orange Twin release, "The Slow Bang", is produced by Phosphorescent's Matthew Houck, whose ghostly piano and laid-back, well-placed percussion accompanies Adams' own uniquely simple finger-plucked guitar, setting an intimate stage for the heart-breaking work of this southern siren.
