Description:

The midtempo songs on Alice Peacock's self-titled album focus on folky pop-rock confections a la Sheryl Crow and Shawn Colvin. "Bliss" (featuring John Mayer) and "Imagination" (bolstered by Indigo Girl Emily Saliers) ride a midtempo mix of multiple guitars and harmony vocals, while "I Hear You Say" and "I'll Be the One" recall Faith Hill. "Alabama Boy," meanwhile, takes its cues from Joni Mitchell. "Into the Light" is a soaring slice of country-rock, the hidden track "Northern Star" a delicate stab at cabaret. Peacock's flowing grasp of various styles never sounds forced or fake. Indeed, her invigorating twists on standard pop make this collection a delight. --Annie Zaleski

5Highly Recommended  Sep 14, 2007
She is an incredible singer and artist of words. This CD should be in anyone's collection if they are looking for new and up & coming folk singers.

4The Peacock Preens  Jul 22, 2007
This is a very solid 4 stars. The songs have very good lyrics. They are for the most part softer and slower, but with real feeling that keeps the attention, rather than getting tiresome. Alice is a good singer and her voice blends well with the restrained insturments. This album is definitely not overproduced. It is a dignified album with something to say. That said, the album kinds of runs out of gas toward the end and is maybe feels a bit too long because of it. Had the second half maintained the strength of the first half throughout, I might have given this 5 stars. Some notable tunes:

Alabama Boy - excellent thoughtful and moving tune about a boy who's a domestic violence survivor who did not succumb to his bad experiences

Leading with My Heart

Bliss

I'll Start With Me - critique of American consumerism

Parallel Life

Into the Light

5Alice Peacock  Aug 14, 2006
Whether this is her REAL name or not-you have to admit after listening to this CD that her music is ALL REAL!! Alice's strong yet lilting voice seems to surround you with a feeling of comfort and familiarity that you will not find with other performers. It's like having one of your buddies performing in your living room! She is an extraordinary talent, who manages to tell a story, somewhat the way Joni Mitchell did on her earlier albums. Alice shares bits and pieces of her life with you, and manages to do so with a soft, flowing, sweet voice that captures joy, reminisences, and heartache. This is a beautiful collection.

51000 STARS!!!  Apr 21, 2006
Someone please tell me why this woman has not won a Grammy? I had never heard of Alice Peacock when I saw this album at HVM. But that little voice in my head told me "Your going to love it." And sure enough this CD has not left my cd player in like two years. I love it, love it, love it!!!

Can't wait for the new release in June!

5Like a Sheryl Crow greatest hits  Jan 29, 2006
Had Sheryl been singing these songs, she would have had five hits off the cd. Just a totally satisfying listen. Try parallel lives-you'll try the rest.
