Brigid Boden
Artist: Brigid Boden
Album: (self titled)
What do you get when you cross a beautiful femme voice, with a twist
of Irish influence and an occasional rap or hip hop beat? Brigid Boden.
As weird as the combination may sound, she pulls it off quite nicely.
Starting out with beats heavily tinted with Irish background, Brigid
launches into songs that are warm and almost haunting. _Must Go On_
and _I'll Always Stay_ begin with soothing yet sad tunes about
losing her love and moving on.
_Oh How I Cry_ begins with a quick rap intro and abruptly jumps
to Brigid's singing. This unlikely combination proves to be a lively
song that has since been remixed and turned into its own single.
Throughout the album, Brigid's voice floats above a simple music base,
emphasizing the clarity and purity of the vocals. Combined with lyrical
poetry she runs the gambit of true love and the sorrow of losing someone
close by blending Irish Folk with a more up beat Hip Hop style.
Don't take it wrong, it is by no means another femme singing about
love that falls short. This is yet another album that words do not
do justice to.
