CD REVIEW: Haroula Rose "Someday"

Quaint, simple music is sometimes the most intriguing. Haroula Rose doesn't need a whole lot of bells and whistles to get her point across and to create beautiful music. This EP is just a short little collection of five tracks, all of which are superbly crafted and showcase her organic talents of singing and songwriting. On the title track, Haroula's voice is the star and her lyrics make that possible. Her themes of love throughout each song connect on different levels with the listener but her message is always delivered with sonic excellence. With recent success in the female singer/songwriter world, it is quite possible Haroula Rose will be amongst the newest class of lady songstresses to make it big. After hearing these songs, it's a wonder that hasn't happened yet.
