Synopsis

Product Description

Though bearing a reasonable resemblance to her work with the alterna-pop-folk band IF and goddess rock band Drawing Down the Moon, Some Kind Of Bird clearly establishes Stacy Robin as a solo artist apart from her current bands. "Heartless LoveEdrives that point home, trading traditional guitar laden hooks for heavy synth grooves and a middle-eastern flavor, adding an intriguing dimension to the tale of disillusionment with religious righteousness. Co-Produced by Robin herself, she fills her ever-diverse musical palette with a fusion of pop, rock, folk & world music, combined with her personal lyrical style. From the infectious opener "Follow" to the deeply introspective and moody "I Bleed", Some Kind Of Bird takes you on a journey full of playful odes ("Little Stars")and painful laments ("Year and a Day") and soars to every emotion in between.

CD Reviews

I think I'll fly

Rebecca Johnson | Washington State | 10/17/2005

(5 out of 5 stars)

""Over and over I run on this treadmill

Chasing a target that`s moving too fast.

Dreaming of soaring of blue skies above me.

Reaching, I touch only glass.

But there's no stairway here to climb.

No other way up, I think I'll fly."

Stacy Robin draws on world influences to create unique spirals of sound infused with creative lyrics. Her message is positive and she explores dreams, success in relationships and a variety of concepts we can all relate to including the loss of someone we love and how we value true friendship.

"Cry for me now

You've been a friend to the end.

Cry for me now

Just lay your heart in my hands

And tear my blue sky down."

Stacy Robin has a talent for contrast. In some of her songs she is deeply sultry and then she surprises with playful spontaneous heights. She takes on Mediterranean rhythms as easily as Country and then dives into sensual drenching goddess depths. Her voice adapts easily to all styles and she has an adventurous spirit.

You may recognize Stacy's voice since she has been heard on TV and in Commercials for Gateway Computers, Toyota and Southwestern Bell ads.
