THE SPARES

Beautiful and Treacherous Thing

2007-02-19

Did Allison Krauss die? If she did do not worry, she has reincarnated herself into Jodee Smith, lead singer of the Chicago based Alt-Country err Country band The Spares. This album showcases a very tight production quality and the songs are nice and mellow. The Spares are at their best when they pare down the larger band sound for just a couple of instruments backing Jodee Smith's soulful voice. - Oliver
