A friend recommended this cd and I'm loving it!

The sensual yet rocking title song, Quicksand Ground, has such a combination of vulnerability and strength and recalls the experience of I think, an attraction to 2 different people. I love Shooting Star which is a song about love lost with a celtic feeling and Simply is one of the best love songs ever written, while Where Are You Now sounds like it belongs on a blockbuster movie soundtrack! Grace Millo combines styles from rock, country, folk, and more. I love that every song sounds unique from the others. Her vocals are emotional, sometimes dark and a vast surprise from the norm of today's music.
