EW's GRADE
B+

Details Release Date: Apr 06, 2004; Lead Performance: Elysian Fields

Preternaturally self-possessed singer Jennifer Charles' drawl has always evoked both dusk in an abandoned saloon and a languid sexuality, and here she gets woozy melodies worthy of her seductive delivery. The result: a deceptively quiet album that worms its way into your head.
