Brianna Carpenter – On So It Goes Album Review

Brianna Carpenter – On So It Goes (Fringe Records)

On So It Goes is the latest album for Brianna Carpenter and is such a beautiful album that is well written, sung and performed which is evident in the opening haunting track Enchante which is well sung and written, Brianna vocals shine here as does her song writing. In Our Hearts is more of an upbeat number with the handclapping and the way the piano playing is performed. The use of the other instruments only add the to the song. Bitter shines with its honest songwriting, lyrics and vocals. It’s got a haunting feel to it. The same goes for Save Me and the use of the guitar works with the song. The Way I Used To is a pick off the album for me, It’s another winning haunting number to me, the use of the instruments which all just gel together and the use of backing vocals only adds to the song. Feel Better is another pick for me, I love the way the song is sung and the piano is played. It is a song that is something special. Anxious is another upbeat tune the way the song is structured and performed and the use of backing vocals just gels to the tune. You Are Mine is a well structured and written song the use of vocals alongside the guitar gives the song life and depth. Memories has almost a country feel to it with the way the vocals are sung but the song is well crafted and performed. Wolves is a well written song that is well sung and performed. Love the use of Cello on the song. The ending track Aches is so beautifully sung and performed, it’s so well written and the Cello shines here. It’s a haunting track that delivers. The is one of the best albums of the year, beautiful sung and written by Brianna which she also produced except for tracks 7 & 8. If you love good music and good singer songwriters you best be giving this a listen and prepare to fall in love with her amazing music like I did.
