U.K. singer/songwriter Sandi Thorn got a record contract by attracting a steady audience of thousands to her live, personally produced webcasts. One of them drew nearly 100,000 viewers!I hear two distinct singers on this disc: the one which presents an interesting off-beat lyric and delivery (e.g. “Horsepower,” “Punk Rocker,” “What if I’m Right” and “Human Jukebox”) and the one who tries to be an English version of Jewel. I hope she keeps to the former in the future. 10/06 MJVD
