BLAME SALLY, SEVERLAND An amazing collection of talented local musicians has banded together and released a stunning new CD. Severland, the latest from San Francisco s Blame Sally, should bring this female foursome universal acclaim. Individually, Renee Harcourt, Monica Pasqual, Jeri Jones and Pam Delgado have long displayed stirring singer-songwriter gifts. Together they re a powerhouse unit, presenting outstanding lead vocals and harmonies. Severland carves out a strong identity on the indie-pop edges of Americana. Among the highlights (though there s not a weak track among the dozen here) are the riveting title tune, the piano-driven Fillmore Street, the haunting Devil to Pay and the country-rocker Trouble.

Severland is the quartet's strongest and most cohesive album...To put it in Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young terms, Severland is their Deja Vu. That's actually not a bad starting point musically, either: acoustic guitars, piano, and creamy close harmonies predominate, with occasional hints of banjo and lap steel
