Synopsis

Album Description

Kristin Plater's "24" is an excellent showcase for her moving songwriting, mature songcraft, and awe-inspiring vocals. Plater has a talent for making unique and personal experiences seem universal, as her relationship-themed lyrics vividly describe situations and perspectives that everyone can relate to. While her situations reveal an keen, everyman's sense of the connections that humans make with each other, her voice - gritty, powerful, beautiful - is uniquely singular. The production on the CD is eclectic and always interesting, lending muscle to Plater's songs. "24" is the CD of a fresh talent on her way to stardom - catch her slinky, sexy "Convince Me," her epic and powerful "Someone Else's Arms," the bluesy, bouncy "Lying," and "The Life I Need," which shows off Plater's voice masterfully. -Mark Miazga

CD Reviews

A pleasure to listen to--even better live

themadbard | Sandy Eggo | 07/16/2002

(4 out of 5 stars)

"Recently caught Kristin Plater performing live at a coffee house in San Diego. After only a couple of songs, I knew I had to buy her CD. She has a great voice for college folk/pop/rock. Her lyrics are clever and sassy, full of insight and emotion, and most important: a lot of fun. More sophisticated lyrically than Jewel, very reminicent of Jill Sobule. A richer voice than Sheryl Crow. Had a good rapport with the audience. If you're interested in the female singer/songwriter genre, Kristin Plater is definitely worth checking out. Kristin played some new works -- I look forward to additional releases."

Moving, Soulful folk-pop
