Album Name: Little Airplane
Artist: Blake Hazard
Year/Label: 2003 / Kimchee Records
Review by Anna Maria Stjärnell
Blake Hazard’s debut is wonderful. Her enchanting voice and strong songs make for a great listen.
“Waiting” is as great a pop song as you could wish for. It’s bouncy but melancholy and leaves plenty of space for Hazard’s engaging singing.
The restrained “Reservoir” uses a lovely acoustic guitar as a setting for the song.
Blake Hazard’s voice echoes Juliana Hatfield here. The album’s production is great, thanks to Hazard’s husband John Dragonetti.
“In the Sun” is a folksy, ethereal-sounding song. Hazard’s multi-tracked voice is used to beguiling effect.
“Glittering” uses an electronica-influenced production to create an unsettling and beautiful song.
“Little Aeroplane” is a record that deserves investigation.
