Our Take

Alison O'Donnell's latest album, "Exotic Masks and Sensible Shoes," is a whimsical and enchanting journey through the eclectic mind of the Scottish singer-songwriter. With a career spanning over five decades, O'Donnell's experience in the industry shines through in this charming collection of tunes. From the opening track, "Mystery Caller," O'Donnell's ethereal vocals effortlessly float over the intricate melodies, drawing the listener in with each haunting note. The whimsical lyrics and dreamy instrumentation create a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era, while still feeling fresh and contemporary. Tracks like "Gypsy Girl" and "Lost and Loving" showcase O'Donnell's knack for storytelling, weaving intricate tales of love and loss with a poetic grace. The lush arrangements and delicate harmonies only add to the enchanting atmosphere, transporting the listener to a world of magic and wonder. Throughout "Exotic Masks and Sensible Shoes," O'Donnell proves once again why she is a true musical treasure. Her unique blend of folk, rock, and psychedelic influences creates a sonic tapestry that is as unpredictable as it is captivating. So slip on your most sensible shoes, grab your exotic mask, and let Alison O'Donnell take you on a journey you won't soon forget.
