Our Take

Saddle up, cowboys and cowgirls, because Neyla Pekarek's debut solo album "Rattlesnake" is a wild ride through the dusty plains of Americana. Formerly of the luminary folk outfit The Lumineers, Pekarek showcases her exceptional storytelling prowess on this 11-track record that is as enchanting as a desert sunset.

From the haunting opener "Trouble Over Me" to the foot-stomping anthem "Better Than Annie," Pekarek weaves a narrative that is as captivating as it is catchy. Her distinctive vocals soar over lush arrangements that blend elements of folk, country, and rock, creating a sound that is as timeless as it is fresh.

But what truly sets "Rattlesnake" apart is Pekarek's lyrical prowess. Each song is a mini-masterpiece, filled with vivid imagery and clever wordplay that will have you hitting the repeat button to catch every nuance. Whether she's spinning a tale of revenge on "Train" or lamenting lost love on "Whistlin' Women," Pekarek's lyrics are as sharp as the titular snake.

In a music landscape that often feels oversaturated with mediocrity, Neyla Pekarek stands out as a true original. "Rattlesnake" is a triumph of songwriting and storytelling, a testament to Pekarek's undeniable talent and vision. So grab your ten-gallon hat and saddle up for a journey through the wild west of music with Neyla Pekarek as your guide. Yeehaw!
