Sarah Borges - Radio Sweetheart

She's been Boston's singing sweetheart for the past few years as part of Sarah Borges & the Broken Singles. But, now, the singer-songwriter is claiming that title of her own as she readies the release of her new solo record, Radio Sweetheart.The 10-track album, set for release on October 13, 2014 via Booneville, Kentucky-based Lonesome Day Records, is a return to self for the artist. I wrote songs that felt important to me. Before, I had a lot of co-writes, so a lot of opinions in the mix, and this time I was able to think of just what I wanted. It was scary and freeing at the same time, says Borges, who Rolling Stone magazine describes as friendly pop-rock with bits of twang, rockabilly, and '50 pop.upbeat attitude, a voice that loves to let rip, guitars that still think it's 1980, and arrangements in the classic rock tradition. ****R2Borges is an Americana femme fatale with a fantastic voice and a fine sense of the melodrama of Roy Orbison and his twilight cousins as imagined by David Lynch, she's like the older and more experienced sister of Neko Case. Blabber n Smoke'Radio Sweetheart' is an energising experience when you want to get moving and feel the blood course through your veins.......Great music to make breakfast to, like the high from a double shot Americano! FATEAThe artwork on the cover was a clue as to what I could expect when I dropped the metaphorical needle onto the CD. Fifty minutes later when I pressed repeat, I was still smiling and desperately trying to stop my feet from tapping. No Depression
