Liz Tormes: Maybe You Won’t
Probably the best kept secret of 2007, if the number of listeners on Last.fm is anything to go by. Liz Tormes ‘rocks’ according to her website, but if she does, she does so in the most understated way.
Crossing the boundaries between alt-country, first-generation Cowboy Junkies and Mazzy Star, plus the aforementioned rockisms – subtly blending noisy fizzing guitars with their acoustic neighbours, plus piano and organ, her songs and her voice are warm and inviting.
Maybe You Won’t comes from her self-produced and self-released debut album Limelight. It features vocals from Teddy Thompson and cuts back the instrumentation to drive the rhythm and hint at the melody which is carried by Liz and Teddy’s voices.
