I AM SHELBY LYNNE is a genre-blending affair marked by lustrous production and surprisingly mature songwriting. Lynne dips into soul, R&B, folk, and rock to forge a collection of radio-ready tracks that pay tribute to many of the great female singers who inspired her.
"Your Lies" approaches Spectorian pop grandeur filtered through a '90s sensibility. On "Leavin'," the singer attempts to revisit the warmth of Aretha Franklin-like vintage soul. "Life Is Bad" may please fans of Sheryl Crow and Lucinda Williams. "Why Can't You Be" almost sounds like a tribute to Williams, expect for the blaring horns that bring the track to unexpected corners. The lightly hypnotic "Lookin' Up" calls upon strings, flute, synthesizers, and a slightly Stereolab-like intro for eminently palatable results. "Where I'm From" is an honest and straightforward tribute to the singer's Alabama home. And on "Black Light Blue," Lynne sounds like a world-weary chanteuse, working a smoky room in Southern Texas. Fans of radio-friendly female singer/songwriters will want to pounce on I AM SHELBY LYNNE.
