Editor's review
Spending much of the '90s fronting indie-darlings Spent, Annie Hayden kept her career going as a solo artist after the band was, well, spent. Her clear, plaintive voice and gentle, sturdy melodies capture intimate moments full of warmth and reflection.
Biography
On her new album The Enemy of Love, Annie Hayden follows up her critically acclaimed debut recording, The Rub, with yet another impressive collection of songs that showcase the growth of her exquisite songwriting.
From the cagey "Cara Mia" to the four-on-the floor bounce of "Your Carnival", Annie?s orchestration and pop sensibilities make this record required listening as she continues to charm and enthrall with her delicate melodies and crystalline voice. Warm and familiar, the record is in part a nod to some of her musical influences ? Lindsay Buckingham/Christine McVie/Fleetwood Mac, The Zombies, Nick Heyward, Todd Rundgren, Moody Blues, Lou Christie and Joan Jett among others. She even takes a fresh look at the Replacements? classic "Swingin? Party" and makes it all her own.
