Alecia Nugent - A Little Girl...A Big Four-Lane

Alecia Nugent has one awesome bluegrass voice, and one awesome country voice as well. Her latest CD, A Little Girl...A Big Four-Lane is a mixture of country and bluegrass sounds, with a heavy lean toward a country sound, not like today's country though - Alecia's sound is pure. I love this girl's voice and the CD is a fine piece of work. I think the Rounder Records web site sums it up best by stating "A Little Girl...A Big Four-Lane is acoustic country music at its most emotional, soulful, and moving. "

One of the great things about this CD is that it's all acoustic, so we get to hear instruments like the dobro, mandolin, fiddle, banjo and guitar at their best. This pure acoustic country sound I speak of may well be the very thing that gets people debating whether an artist is a bluegrass musician or a country musician.

Alecia's first CD, self titled Alecia Nugent, was also a mix of country and bluegrass sounds, but it leaned more toward the bluegrass sound whereas A Little Girl...A Big Four-Lane leans more toward a country sound. Still, there are a couple of tracks on her latest CD that are unmistakably bluegrass, and I like the CD.
