Elizabeth Lorrey crafts a dark blend of edgy, intense acoustic rock. Slow-cooked, finely seasoned, with a hint of Suzanne Vega simmering in The Cure.
'Gone' is Elizabeth's first single as a solo artist, & the first cut off her forthcoming, full-length cd, "Awakening" (available November 2009). A grooving, acoustic gem, and a taste of what's to come...
'Now' is a solo-acoustic version of another album track- just Elizabeth & her guitar- one mic, one take.
Elizabeth penned 'The Wild Rose' as a gift for her sister, who recently built a cabin retreat in the mountains... Its jangling guitars, chugging snare drum, & soaring harmonies quickly became a fan favorite, so it's included as a bonus track...

Gives new meaning to the term "singer-songwriter."
author: Dorothy Wright
Elizabeth gives new meaning to the term "singer-songwriter" as she seems to live and breathe her music. Her strong contralto perfectly complements the simple yet compelling melodies. Her lyrics speak to timeless and universal emotions. A big talent--these songs are ones you want to hear again and again. "The Wild Rose" in particular will hit home to many.

Perfectly balanced vocals and instrumentals, and masterful songwriting
author: Maura
“Gone,” with its hollow, haunting percussion, tempting musical phrases and vulnerable vocals, personifies the conflict between control, denial, and assured fate in the face of desire. Elizabeth’s moody vocals eloquently enrich the lyrics, and the lyrics themselves (“…now I’m tangled in your story, like I don’t know how it ends”) set a cynical yet desperate tone. I never tire of listening to “Gone,” releasing a deeper intensity of emotion and meaning each time I give it a listen.

Haunting and passionate, you'll listen over and over.
author: Sue Francesconi
Carly Simon comes to mind, especially in Now. Music and lyrics are haunting and passionate. These are songs you'll listen to again and again. Buy it now, before it's "Gone".
