Brand New!


LIKE HANNAH
(Bera 2004)
One of CD Baby's favorite artists, this woman never ceases to amaze and indulge the emotions and imagination,
with a stunning and original, reflective sound that falls somewhere in the open expanse between the dark
and shadowy corners of the subconscious and the dazzling and penetrated realms of the mind. This gorgeous album seems
to exist in those multiple worlds simultaneously- dipping deeply into a rich harmonic palette of jazz, the light accessible delivery of
folk and the bright immediacy of pop. If for no other reason, find out why CD Baby employees get a spring in their step at the
mentioning of this woman. Aiko redefines the bounds of the word "lush."
