Our Take

Leyla McCalla's latest album, "Sun Without The Heat," is like a ray of sunshine on a dreary day. This eclectic blend of folk, blues, and Caribbean influences is a breath of fresh air in a music industry saturated with the same old tired beats.

McCalla's voice is like honey dripping off a warm biscuit - smooth, sweet, and oh so satisfying. Her lyrics are thoughtful and thought-provoking, touching on themes of love, loss, and social justice with a wisdom far beyond her years.

The instrumentation on this album is top-notch, with a delicious mix of banjo, cello, and guitar that will have you tapping your foot and nodding your head in no time. The production is crisp and clean, allowing McCalla's voice to soar and shine in all its glory.

Standout tracks include the hauntingly beautiful "A Day for the Hunter, A Day for the Prey" and the soulful "Money Is King." McCalla's cover of the classic "Set Sail" is a pure delight, breathing new life into an old favorite.

Overall, "Sun Without The Heat" is a must-listen for anyone who appreciates good music with heart and soul. Leyla McCalla has crafted a masterpiece that shines brighter than the sun itself. So put on your headphones, close your eyes, and let her music wash over you like a warm breeze on a summer day. Trust us, you won't be disappointed.
