Thank You Note “Devil’s Rope,” the second album from Portland artist Kate Mann, was recorded at 8-Ball Studio in Portland and coproduced by Kate and studio owner Rob Stroup. The album takes the songwriter into new territory. Whereas Mann’s 2005 release “November Songs” was a sparse acoustic recording, “Devil’s Rope” surrounds Mann’s dusky voice and acoustic guitar with aggressive slide guitar and harmonica, rumbling drums, and accordion and classical guitar sounds that conjure images of gypsy caravans. NOVEMBER SONGS: November Songs is now available online at CDBaby.com“Alternately playful, dark, moody, introspective, poignant, intense, thought-provoking, haunting, quirky . . . Kate Mann is always engaging. Her voice can be husky or girlish. Her lyrics are always unforgettable, combining the provocative power of P. J. Harvey, the poetic sensibilities of Natalie Merchant and the homespun grace of Gillian Welch.
This debut CD features Kate stripped down to the bare essentials, just her beautiful voice, acoustic guitar and upright bass by Bernardo Gomez . . . and songs which will become part of the fabric of American modern folk music.” DOWNLOAD MUSIC:Star Song (mp3)Orange Dress (mp3) Hunger (mp3) Ball and Chain (mp3) Good Girl (mp3) Then Again (mp3) Review (mp3) Star Song part II (mp3)
