\u2018Spokeswoman of The Bright Sun\u2019 – Mark Olson – taking turns you don\u2019t expect<\/h3>\n

Some time ago I heard \u2018Many Colored Kite\u2019 and then \u2018Good-bye Lizelle\u2019 now there\u2019s \u2018Spokeswoman of The Bright Sun\u2019 and still Mark Olson\u2019s music speaks to me. It has the voice of music from long ago, music from a time when there was an innocence, or at least it seemed so to those of us that were there and can still recall the time. There\u2019s always a quiet deep thinking, spiritual feel to this alt Americana. Moments of contemplation. Relaxation. Quiet consideration. Make of that what you will but if you ever use the words: \u201cYou had to be there.\u201d Then this album could be the vehicle to take you there.<\/p>\n

\u2018Dear Elizabeth\u2019<\/em> opens and at once you become part of Olson\u2019s thoughtful, somewhat philosophical examinations, \u2018Time Of Love\u2019<\/em>increases the contemplation and wistful meandering until the title track \u2018Spokeswoman of The Bright Sun\u2019<\/em> makes you realise that time is not simply a river running away from you, it does have islands where you can pause. Aside from those there\u2019s the wonderfully profound and the pensive mixed amongst \u2018Seminole Valley Tea Sippers Society\u2019<\/em>, \u2018You Are All\u2019<\/em> and \u2018All My Days\u2019.\u00a0 <\/em><\/p>\n

Folk fused Americana blended with alternative country and mixed with the essence of experience and feeling, shades of experiment taking turns you don\u2019t expect – that\u2019s \u2018Spokeswoman of The Bright Sun\u2019.<\/p>\n
