LAST LAUGH is a mirrored reflection of its strong-minded, warm-hearted, multi-talented writer/producer Michelle Penn.  Incorporating the musical skill of a couple of well-known and extremely talented musicians; Will Turpin (Collective Soul) and Andrew Carillo (Joan Osborn) on the project, Michelle Penn has combined her impassioned guitar artistry with a set of vocal chords that could melt your soul with fervent heat… into a down-to-earth, the-girl-can-rock, six track auditory display of excellence!


Highlights include: 

“Think Twice” (track #1) for the soulful, heartfelt melodies.  The vocals will catch your interest with the subtle Aimee Mann characteristics.
  
“Out of the Blue” (track #2) for the killer syncopated guitar hook.  More excellent vocals displaying more of a Chrissie Hynde tone. 

“Good” (track #3) for the parallel major/minor modal interchange through the verses.  Very cool.
  
“Avalon”(track #6) for the tougher, grittier sounding Sarah McLachlan style vocals over a Counting Crows musical atmosphere.  Wonderfully unique.   

 
In a time when it is extremely rare to pop in a CD and find that you truly enjoy every track – Michelle Penn has given us this opportunity… flawlessly… with LAST LAUGH.

Michelle Penn rocks!  Love her music, the guitar and vocals are awesome.  Glad to see Renee Paquette singing on a couple songs as well.  Looking forward to whatever new is coming out.
