Album Notes

"If we could, we'd pour this sound on pancakes."

-The Boston Globe

"Every song on Original Soul was penned by Potter. The fruit of that labor is on display in the intimacy between her voice and the music. Accompanied by the Nocturnals, every aspect of this album is intertwined, every note and moment are one being, uninterrupted by hype or expectation. This is the album artists dream of making and for Potter it's only the beginning."

-Performer Magazine

"Much has been written about Potter's voice, but no adjective can really define just how good it is. From a breathy whisper to a bluesy groan, she beats most singer-songwriters by leaps and bounds."
-Ethan Covey, Seven Days

Twenty-one year old pianist and vocalist Grace Potter is fresh off the completion of her latest album, "Original Soul," which features musicians who have collaborated with musical greats ranging from Bonnie Raitt to Warren Haynes. A mid-March tour in Dublin, Ireland proved the album was filled with promise and Potter is now spreading the new sounds throughout the New England area. Teaming up with her are the Nocturnals, a bluesy, soulful, and funky outfit with an impressive and mature dynamic range.

I'm not inclined to use of superlatives. Only this: The entire collection presented here is a great piece of work; it provokes genuine emotion in the listener, carries one away to a different place. Art at it's best.

The room that I was in, while listening to this CD became very smoke filled. The temp when up. But still things were very clear to me! What a great CD. Thomas
