Brandi Carlile - Review and Giveaway

The winner is Rebecca Graham!







Brandi Carlile is a guitar playing Washington bred amazement. She is a part of VH1’s “You Oughta Know” collection, and has had many of her songs featured on episodes of my favorite show “Grey’s Anatomy”.

Brandi Carlile reminds me of the Indigo Girls, one of my favorite duos. She very soulful, with a bit of country/blue grass. She sings from the heart, and leaves it all out there for you to hear.

Her new album, "Give Up the Ghost" gave her the opportunity to work with Elton John, and record at Sunset Sound (where The Doors have recorded…The Doors people!). They recorded this album live, and with some pretty cool instruments.

Brandi Carlile isn’t an artist I would have picked for myself, but I am so glad that I had the chance to listen to this album. Her voice is incredible, and the lyrics are real life. So many artists don’t take the time to record their own songs, let alone write them. The fact that she and her band, “The Twins” took the time to write and record their own music speaks to the type of album they wanted to create.

Want to win a copy of Brandi Carlile's album "Give Up the Ghost"? Leave me a comment to entered. Tweet the giveaway for an additional entry, just leave me your link.

The giveaway will close Sunday November 1st.

Many thanks to One2One Network for the chance to preview this great album.

I have LOVED Brandi Carlile since BEFORE Grey's Anatomy! All of her stuff is great but this is the best yet.

I already have her latest so I don't *need* to win, but I wouldn't be opposed either!
