Razor Wire is singer-songwriter Hannah Aldridge's first album, and it's a doozy. Her version of Americana is country-meets-rock-ballad, and it works. You'll hear some hard-edged guitars, and some sweet-voiced vocals, and all varieties in between. Her roots are Nashville TN and Muscle Shoals AL. (Unlisted track #11 is an acoustic version of #4 Razor Wire, but both include "god damn".)
