SHANE BARTELL

Too Soon to Say

2007-01-23

This is Texas Singer songwriter’s freshman effort & proves to an overall enjoyable listening experience. Shane mixes folk & pop sounds that combine the romantic sounds captured in a Chris Issak tune & the pop sensibilities of bands like Prefab Sprout. His voice seduces his listening audience with its laid back sultry sound and well crafted lyrics. In addition to the folk & pop sounds on this disc Shane try’s to capture some Bossa Nova sounds on tracks like “Stars Burn Out”. If your feel like adding a little romance to your set all I can say is it’s never “Too Soon to Say” Gregg Saur
