It's dangerous to describe this as folk music, as most people will switch off immediately. However, describe this as honest, endearing acoustic music with brilliant songs and superb backing and we are getting nearer the truth. The first four songs set the mood beautifully, The Good Man is wonderful, Let Me Be has the most addictive hook of all times, Cruel is honest and sad. The middle tracks are maybe not as strong, but Falling sets up a final 5 tracks of pure delight finishing with the title track 'Underneath The Stars' which includes some gentle brass band accompaniment which is disarmingly beautiful.

I don't really like folk music and I hate brass bands, but this for me is her best album, and the best album I have ever heard or probably will ever hear. She's lovely, it's great, just give it a try. See her in concert, though, for an even better life affirming evening to treasure. The anti-Britney Spears, an honest hard-working, very funny, beautiful lass.

I am going to be contreversial here. I think this gave me a good flavour of the album and the style of the music without going into every track. it's the length you would get in a music magazine

I welcome you to Ciao!

From your very short description, this sounds like something I might like. More information about her and the album would help me (and others) to decide, and be more useful :-)
