Listen to: Freaky Little Story (The Megan Slankard Band)
Freaky Little Story is the second release from Megan Slankard and adds a full backing band to her amazing vocals and acoustic guitar. Taking full advantage of the new tools available to her (namely, a lead guitar, bass and drums) Megan's sound has matured into something many artists take decades to achieve.
Her songs have catchy hooks while having lyrics that are far more literal than you would expect. You'll spend hours listening to songs like Dirty Wings and Give Life before the real meaning of either enters your conciousness. Her Pantene Pro-Voice finalist song, Flying Backwards, still remains one of the most honest and beautiful acoustic songs in this reviewer's book while hard rocking songs such as Holding Off will have you bopping around (and humming along for weeks!).
Sit back and enjoy this CD, it'll stay in your rotation forever.
