notes

A dense collection of stratospheric pop, Vinni Blue's debut CD, More Than Anything was refined by Flaming Lips' producer Dave Fridmann and Fear of Yellow's Mark Sadeghian, who added just the right touch of depth and hard-edged grit to the collection of catchy songs.

"From a whisper to a sunbeam, Blue's range is enveloping, and a wealth of experience is evident on this mature artfully sculpted debut" states the review on the Starbucks' Hear Music wall. The CD was recently added to Starbucks' Hear Music playlist and is currently being promoted as one of Hear Music's New Discoveries in California.

Blue's vocal style has been compared to Aimee Mann and Souxie, but she easily maneuvers from their harder rock style to sweeter vocals on the band's softer, piano-based songs. More Than Anything covers it all, from edgy guitar rock to moody piano, the band moving surely through it all. It is a compelling debut from a powerful trio.

  • Incredible Talent
    author: Melody Platt

    I love this CD and encourage others to purchase it. My favorites are Endless, Step Out and Those Days. I too can't get the songs out of my head and I've listened to this CD so much that I should probably purchase a backup.

  • Check This One Out!
    author: Megsters

    A CD I can actually sing along to! Love it! The lyrics are creatively put together. Words everyone can relate to at sometime in their lives. You all have a great sound and mix it all together well! When will the next one be finished??

  • Emotional and with great attention to detail
    author: X10

    This album is obviously a labor of love, with a level of investment (both emotionally and technically) that is practically unheard of in an independent release. Comparisons to early Aimee Mann are unavoidable, and the music will definitely resonate with fans of her work. The lyrics are genuine but a little basic, so there is room for future releases to offer a richer development of the depth of wordplay. Still, the variety in moods and styles on the album guarantee a song for almost any occasion...so give it a spin and see how it plays!

  • This CD will not gather dust!!
    author: Mel D

    At times intense, other times soothing, always incredible. Moving lyrics, catchy melodies, Vinni's multi-faceted voice, very talented artists, & wonderfully put together. A song to fit every mood, and some that just catch you & you listen to over & over & over (depending on the mood of the day!) My absolute favorites are Halfway Girl, My Star & More Than Anything.

    The CD is great! Definately one of those unknown gems. A pearl like this is not to be missed!!! From the loveliness of "my star" to the haunting sadness of "endless", this cd is a wonderful listen.

  • Absolutely amazing!

    Perfect listening for any mood. If I was forced to choose one song to listen to for the rest of my life, it would have to be Halfway Girl. Perfect CD from an amazing artist.

    This cd has been on permanent rotation in my car since I picked it up 3 weeks ago. The lyrics are catchy. The song styles are varied and interesting. Vinni's vocals are gorgeous. An amazing first album from this band.
