Caroline Herring, Wellspring (Blue Corn Music)
Caroline Herring returns with her followup album to her critically acclaimed debut Twilight that won her a number of accolades, including a best new artist award. Wellspring is another successful trek down the country and folk path. It's hard not to enjoy the subtle humor brought forth in "Texas Two Step" or get caught up in the prettiness of songs like "Trace" and "Jewels". Texas churns out yet another winner in a continuing display of the varied music scene in the state that other neighbors can only turn sick with envy. Wellspring is a top quality entry into the country genre. That is, country done the way it should be and not all Toby Keith'd out the wazoo with sponsors from Ford Motors.
