Well, it can't be said that some of the younger artists recording today independently haven't learned their blues, alt-country & thrill of rocking out on an opening tune. But Los Angeles-based Emily Zuzik certainly didn't miss any classes in this genre. No.
From the ass-boogieing "Easy," to the more beautifully woven & subtle "Between Midnight & Memphis," Emily coaxes the bluesy resources of her fine Tracy Nelson-Bonnie Raitt-Bonnie Bramlett voicings into warm steam tonality. The exceptional 6-song EP age & alchemy is all worth it just to hear how she concludes "Between Midnight & Memphis."
Her sound is atmospheric, & though it's not moody, each song has its mood temperature. The more noirish "The Case For Slowing Down" is a sensuous blues - a somewhat sibilant voice with vaporous guitar notes. Good arrangement too & application with significance. Emily doesn't sing this as much as act it out like an actress. She's performing a part & it's like a part in a dramatic musical. An aside, like when Bessie Smith sang "St. Louis Blues" in an old 1929 film clip.
A John Lennon cover, "I'm Losing You," is convincing as a slow blues-easy listening jazzier take. This is how a cover of a major artist's song should be - different from the original, if not equally effective & compelling. Oh, Lennon would've loved this.
