FULL BAND SHOW

‘Merritt’s first solo album Bramble Rose won her critical acclaim; her second Tambourine, got a Grammy nomination.  Neither were as good, nor as fully representative, of the New York-based, North Carolina singer-writer’s talent as her third. . . . . . Here her wonderful voice, smooth and warm with throaty twang and unforced power, has free rein to do what it does best on 11 fine new songs.’  MOJO ****
