notes
When she sings, her voice emerging in a hail of whispers and bellows, Juliana Finch shines.
As with a lot of young singer/songwriters, much of Finch's music delves into that well-explored territory of heartbreak, falling for someone new, and those other turmoils de amor.
However, unlike a great many such musicians, Finch employs a diverse set of dramatic lenses for spotlighting these well-worn subjects.
The [23]-year-old performer borrows from a variety of sources, combining visceral blues phrasing with the intimacy of a breathy, modern-folk songstress. Finch's other musical interest, the black-comedy charm of Irish folk ballads, rounds her style out nicely.

Simply the best pop album in two years
author: Rhett AultmanThis is easily the best pop album I have come across in the last two years. "How To Take The Fall" is an amazing blend of different styles, reaching far beyond the standard beats of modern acoustic pop to bring in tastes of smooth, almost psychedelic country, then pulling back for sweet three-beat piano ballads, then running into powerfully paced trad. Infused throghout is Finch's amazing vocal tonal color. It sounds the way that soft, well-aged bourbon tastes, but only if you're drinking that bourbon while watching an autumn sunset from your red-clay dusted back porch. Personal and heartfelt, her style is emotional without the common tendency of singer-songwriters to drag the audience into his/her own issues. Her lyrics are likewise touching, and unlike so many other songwriters these days, they do so without becoming abstract. This is music that goes from the desk to the highway, from the bedroom to the kitchen, and from cool Friday nights to slow Sunday afternoons.
This CD is relaxing and puts your mind at ease.
author: scientistAre you having a bad day? Then, you need to listen to Juliana Finch. Her voice and lyrics will move you from a place of unhappiness to a calm, collected, happy state. Listen to this CD with your lover to help accentuate feelings of lust and love. This CD is awsome...hands down one of the best CDs I have listened to in a long time.
I wish life was a good as her voice
author: Chief HeloThe first and last tracks are my favorites because of the images they envoke. Outshine the Sun is one of the most visual romance tunes I've ever heard. Oh yeah, Ms. Finch is a total doll.
wonderful cd - buy it! do it now!
author: katethis is a wonderful cd for any folk fan. i highly recommend it.
Soundtrack Quality
author: HiddenDenimSultry velvet tones, Clearcut production, Real instruments mixed to perfection. A drumbeat that takes you deep and a strum that strings you onto the dancefloor of your living room. Lyrical content that pulls issues from virtulity into reality. Its strong quiet heartbeat calls to be entwined into a modern movie soundtrack. Juliana Finch's self titled CD is a must have.

Arresting
author: EliseI first heard of Juliana from a friend who saw her play at the Sentient Bean in Savannah, GA - and checked her out on the strength of that recommendation. Her EP is the best kind of appetizer. It leaves you very hungry for more. Her sense of humor is subtle, her songwriting is incredibly mature, her stories are compelling (like that of the lovelorn young man in "California," for example), and she has this uncanny ability to get inside people's heads. Too many songwriters care only about telling THEIR story...but Juliana is exquisitely empathetic. When she puts out a full-length CD, I'll be first in line to buy it. And whoever happens to pass by this page should put this EP in their cart immediately.
I love it
author: JamieSometimes you listen to some indie music and wonder why the band or artist isn't famous. How could somebody with such a lovely singing voice and such interesting songs not be well known? This is such a time. I'm looking forward to a full-blown album.
True artistry at it's finest. AMAZING.
author: WombatI am not able to express in words how truly touching the music is. Her CD is absolute MAGIC. After listening to each and every awe inspiring song, I am a CHANGED PERSON. This CD has been the single best CD I have EVER purchased. Of course, that's just me.
Julian Finch works magic on her debut disc!
author: Mark RossJuliana Finch's self-titled debut disc is without a doubt the best music I have heard in a very long time. Her lyrics paint pictures and the music evokes feelings of love, joy and loss. Listen to this disc in the dark with your eyes closed, or at any other time. It will not fail to work its magic.
