Gretchen Peters - Burnt Toast And Offerings

Re-release of Gretchen Peters' 4th studio album. Gretchen Peters, who has written some of country's most intelligent songs of life's complications, offers a hushed benediction for a woman emerging from the chilled-over remains of what is truly not enough to flower into full potential. Burnt Toast & Offerings captures high suburbia, with its privilege and settling. The shimmering Ghost and vamping Thirsty speak to the vast waves of emptiness in a life gone dry, while Jezebel is an exhaled ponder on the one who finds live in a parched soul, suffering the blame from bringing another alive.With subdued arrangements meant to evoke and conjure, Burnt Toast is an adult album that embraces the courage it takes to be happy, the wisdom of being willing, and the strength it takes to let go.
