(2014) Sarah Humphreys - New Moon
Review:
On her third album Sarah Humphreys continues to explore confessional folk music, this time with a dash of country thrown into the mix.
Kasey Chambers produced New Moon and though there are elements of twang on songs such as Read My Heart, Humphreys is more a fellow folk sister to Caitlin Harnett and Melody Pool.
Primarily these songs document affairs of the heart, the overall feel the endearing afterglow of newfound love – with an ode to a streetlight thrown in. With a vocal sweetness that never cloys, Humphreys has penned an optimistic, heartwarming and mature set of songs.
As she puts it, the album is called New Moon because “the songs are influenced by the cycles of life; it’s how things work. Every month, the moon goes from new to full and you have that dark phase, but you always come out of it, into the light.”
