Unadorned by lisa b burns

Lenny Kaye (Patti Smith Group)

"This album has been put in steady rotation at our house alternating with "Beautiful Dreamer," the songs of Stephen Foster. I couldn't give "unadorned" any greater compliment."

...Allan Pepper (The Bottom Line)

It is what I imagine Neil Young & Lucinda Williams would sound like if they were produced by Brian Eno.

...Sal Nunziato NYCD

"Burns has a voice that evokes a little girl who has spent a lot of time in nightclubs" Jennifer Kelly - Splendid

"...Burns alters her voice brilliantly...you can hear the raw voice of P.J. Harvey, the integrity of Lisa Germano, the salt and flavor of Hazel Dickens."

Gert Ovre Hallandsposten Daily News

"Lisa has a kinda higher voice than Lucida Williams, but similar blues/rock inflected ideas, if filtered through some kind of strange 'surreal landscape' twang."

"Trouble Waits" almost sounds like Marianne Faithful trying country."

"Ballsy, often beautiful, unexpected ...very effective twists."

(talking about Anderson/Burns composition 'Across The Blue'. One of Straub's Best Songs of 2004)

Arthur Lamonica of the Shirts and Rome 56 recorded the record and provided the quiet soulful atmosphere.
