Claire Anne Taylor – Giving It Away

There’s so much new music that comes down the information superhighway, a veritable landslide of songs and singer-songwriters opening up their hearts and baring their souls. To be honest, most of it is bland and derivative and you have to wade through an avalanche of mediocre to find the gold. But when you strike something special it stands out immediately – a shining light of heartfelt honesty and talent amid the pretenders. Claire Anne Taylor and her third album Giving It Away is the perfect example of just that.
