Skyler Day – Between The I And The You (Self Released)
Skyler Day debut EP is something really special, She is a singer songwriter who music revolves around the guitar, it’s a little country and a little pop but she can sing and her songs are so well written, she wrote with her producer Steven Solomon on tracks 1,3 and five and the two and four are written by her. The opening song Circles capture what she all about her and her voice really shines. Its a country inspired song has that tone and feel and musicianship is first rate. After The Show is an energetic track that shows off her songwriting, vocals and lyrics. I love the use of the slide guitar. Not Tonight is more laid back, beautiful vocals that truly shine here, great musicianship and good lyrics. Ian’s Song is well written and performed, production is first rate, her vocals shine here as does her lyrics. Just Stay finishes off the EP with a beautifully written ballad that is so moving and incredible singing. I love the use of the backing vocals through out the EP. I was really surprised and blown away by how good this EP is and how good a talent Skyler is, if she keeps doing more stuff like this, she is gonna having a huge and successful career as a musician. I hope she plays a show when I am over in LA in January. She got something going here and I can see it paying off really well.
