What do you do when you're too jetlagged to fall asleep? Listen to music, of course! and then write about it. So here's what I listened to in the wee hours of the morning.
For a debut album especially, this is amazing. Halona King has such a low and well-controlled
voice that works so nicely with the slow, bittersweet background. She shows such talent in knowing when to sing
softly and gently, and when to build up with the instrumental. Each song is a different gem, each one stays
with the listener long after it has stopped playing, but it never sounds like she is trying too hard. She doesn't need to: every song strikes deep naturally without sounding worn-out or cliche. All I can say now is: wow. Just wow.
Halona King starts her career off strong with War Grounds and I hope to hear
so much more from her soon (and I can safely say I plan on listening to this album over and over in the meanwhile).
Let her change your life here. (The download's even free! Get it now!)
