ALBUM REVIEW: "Daisies" 

Alyssa Trahan

"Daisies"

Self-released

alyssatrahan.com

This here is a record of full-blown, unadulterated, contemporary country pop. From her understated angelic voice to the album's slick production and overall feel, Alyssa Trahan's "Daisies" screams NashVegas. Trahan has assembled a dangerous cast of Nashville characters to flesh out her songs admirably. In fact she recorded the project in Nashville to soak up the vibe, no doubt.

The track "I Love Your Truck" cracks me up. "Happy" is as warm as morning sunshine as Trahan's impressive vocal and lyrical maturity continues to advance. And the lopsided swagger on "I know" is way cool with its melodic sting and instrumental swing. Daisies is a well-put-together EP that doesn't need to grow on the listener: It grabs them straight out of the gate.
