Sonya D. Kitchell (born March 1, 1989 in Northampton, Massachusetts) is an American jazz singer-songwriter. She released her album Words Came Back to Me on 4 April 2006. She previously released an EP Cold Day in 2005
Sonya Kitchell has delivered the goods on her new album This Storm — 12 timeless tunes that document her evolution from emerging artist into a sophisticated musician and songwriter with something meaningful to say about the human condition. Her lyrics are sometimes personal and often political, but all are insightful and deeply felt.
This Storm is an immediate and visceral album, dealing with serious issues with a newfound boldness. Kitchell, whose lyrics have been favorably compared to the poetry of e.e. cummings (Harp Magazine), touches on war, loss, and solitude in tracks like Soldier s Lament, Robin in the Snow, and Walk Away. There is also plenty of drive and backbeat to This Storm, from the sultry, roots-inspired rock of Borderline, to the indie-leaning Every Drop, and Fire, to the shimmering acoustic-alt-pop of Effortless and the first single, Here to There. Kitchell and Burn even leaven some electronic flourishes into the album s closer, the title track This Storm. Strikingly confident, and at times more aggressive and rock-focused, This Storm builds on the promise that marked her acclaimed debut. Recorded with Grammy Award-winning producer Malcolm Burn (Daniel Lanois, Peter Gabriel, Emmylou Harris) at Burn s home studio in upstate New York, the new album is a showcase for Kitchell s prodigious talent and stunning voice. 激情電影
