The Spirit Room - 5375

Product Description She's 18, and she knows what she wants. Singer-songwriter-guitarist Michelle Branch leads the next evolution in pop with her debut major-label album, the Spirit Room. Matching a pop sensibility with a rockin' edginess, Branch is a precocious teenager with musical credibility and vision. Open the door for a career artist, and enter the Spirit Room. Certified Platinum by the RIAA. (4/02) Amazon.com "So I'm a little left of center, I'm a little out of tune," sings Michelle Branch on her debut album's "You Get Me." Well, maybe. Branch offers a well-produced pastiche of chiming and strumming guitars, hip-hop-lite beats, quiet-verse-to-louder-chorus templates, and positive thinking. At her best--"If She Only Knew," a propulsive love note to an ex--she rivals the likes of Sixpence None the Richer as likable radio-aimed fare. Catchy and self-expressive while breaking absolutely no ground, Branch also echoes everyone from label-mate Alanis Morissette to the solo Belinda Carlisle. She dies just a little in this crazy mixed-up world, escapes to her secret garden for sunshine in the pouring rain, and ultimately finds her reflection getting clearer. The Spirit Room could be the next bit of pop philosophy to dazzle mainstream audiences. --Rickey Wright
