Kitto effortlessly mixes music across the generations: from Muddy Waters via Janis Joplin and onto Nirvana & The Foo Fighters. The result is an intriguing collection of grungy, bluesy inspired rock songs.
At times the production (by Kitto herself) is a bit raw and rough edged, however this only adds to the intensity of the songs, as on the soaring rhythms of "Catalina Dreaming" or the darker sound of "The Whore & the Bride". She is also capable of displaying a more subtle side as shown on "Gloves Off", with its more gentle acoustic backing, as well as on her 'tongue-in-cheek' tribute to 60's TV adventure and action shows, "Superhero". Then there is "3 Waze", another fine tack which has a sort of intense subtlety - or should that be subtle intensity?
Kitto has created a well balanced set of strong songs which will make a fine addition to any music collection, and hopefully we can expect more of the same on her next release (due in the second half of 2006).
