Review by Anna Maria Stjärnell
Lindi’s debut album is remarkably assured. Her sweet voice has depth and clarity and her songs are marvellous. “Misery My Love” has an aching use of strings and a Jewel-like vocal from Lindi.

“Sweet Jezebel” is cabaret flavoured and fun. The lithe “Nothing at All” has heavenly harmonies and a sense of loss that’s almost overpowering. “Naughty Little Thing” is a humorous and cheeky song.

Lindi’s voice frequently swoops and soars in the fashion of the late Jeff Buckley.

Her album is just as good as anything established artists has turned out and will hopefully attract a lot of attention.
