Our Take

Laurie Lewis's latest offering, "Guest House/The Golden West," is a delightful jumble of genres that blends bluegrass, folk, and Americana into a whimsical potpourri of musical magic. The album kicks off with the foot-stomping "Lonesome Cowgirl," a rollicking ode to life on the range that is sure to get even the most reluctant dancer tapping their toes. Lewis's lyrical prowess shines throughout the album, with poignant storytelling and witty wordplay that keeps listeners engaged from start to finish. Tracks like "Moonlight Waltz" and "Desert Flower" transport the listener to dusty saloons and wide-open prairies, while "Golden West" and "Home Sweet Home" tug at the heartstrings with their intimate reflections on love and loss. The musicianship on display is top-notch, with Lewis's pristine vocals floating effortlessly over a backdrop of mandolin, fiddle, and banjo that creates a rich tapestry of sound. The blending of traditional and contemporary elements gives the album a timeless quality that will appeal to both longtime fans and newcomers alike. In a musical landscape where authenticity is often sacrificed for commercial success, Laurie Lewis stands out as a beacon of honesty and artistry. "Guest House/The Golden West" is a testament to her talent and a must-listen for anyone who appreciates good music with a healthy dose of charm. So grab your cowboy hat, dust off your boots, and saddle up for a ride through the wild west of Laurie Lewis's imagination. You won't regret it.
