With so many albums little more than a collection of songs rushed out as soon as there is enough material to fill the space, it is a rare pleasure to find a record as lovingly crafted as Blake McKibben's debut.
This young man from Portland, Oregon has produced a record that has taken all of two years' hard work to perfect.
'Haze' is an album that cannot be defined by any single style, but which still has a thread running through each and every track. As befits a record made entirely by one individual, every song is intensely personal, telling the stories of a man's life; both the highs and the lows.
Equally adept at turning his hand to rock, pop, folk or even hip-hop, McKibben uses every weapon in his musical armoury. But each style is just another reflection of his soul, and evidence of an enormous talent.
'Haze' is by turns catchy, heart-felt, funny and sad. McKibben covers every emotion of his young life, from the heartbreak of 'The Breakup Song' to the feel good jauntiness of 'You Lift Me Up', via the daily drudgery of working life, described perfectly in 'Another Day Another Dollar'.
But the standout tracks are the rawest, most soulful and most beautiful. The title track and 'I Wish I Could Thank You' both deal with the tragedy of losing a loved one. But out of that tragedy has come music that belies its creator's youth.
Despite only being 26-years-old, McKibben has been involved in music for nearly two decades. He began by picking up the saxophone in front of his whole school at the age of 10 and was soon turning his hand to piano, drums, bass and anything he could lay his hands on.
He writes, records, performs and produces all of his music. And such total control has produced something that is genuinely unique. His influences include some of the most maverick artists of the last 40 years, including The Velvet Underground, Nine Inch Nails and Morphine. But 'Haze' is an album that is truly his own.
Each song on the record offers something different, but it is as a whole that this album comes in to its own.
If it's a sign of things to come, Blake McKibben has a very very long future.

This woman is nothing less than amazing. She's a machine. She's what 74 / 75. She's absolutely still as beautiful to day as she was back in The 70' s 80's etc. And then there's that voice that one of a kind voice. She sucks you in spins her spell and without realizing it you are hooked. Once hooked there's no way back. Her voice that voice is by far the most intoxicating drug I know that I've ever consumed. And believe me I've tasted a lot of them.
Finally there's here ability to work and relate to the crowd. Never is it forced nor is it over the top or powering.shes one of those people that the quiter she becomes the more subtle her gestures and movements become the more intoxicating the more your crave the more you fight for that taste the feeling you get when you see her live. I've seen her 5 times in three years . The best do far was late Nov. 2022 in Charlotte sold out png out side arena it was a Kool nite but it was really a magical show that nite. she and the band where on , the crowd was into it and on point the night was one of a kind, the type that's like one out of every one hundred shows. Unforgettable. So many of the ladies girls and women had come dress in the apparel and styles she wore through out her carrier. It added a get touch and feel to and for the show. It was a key part
The show was just one that was so Good me nor my wife would never forget that night. In fact my wife , and this was the first time she saw her, was actually in tears by the end of landslide because it had struck such a cord with her, in her that's all she could do.
Personally it's one of my all time most favorite shows if all time. It's that show as a regular concert goer you wait for ever to see and be part of. Magical
.
If you haven't seen her you have got no idea what you are missing and I would highly suggest you get off your butts. You spend the bucks and you go see her before she stops touring. As for me Stevie, I'll be there again time number six in 2024 probably the first of two times during the course of the year. I'll catch you on your way home and catching on the way back out again. I'll see you in Greensville, South Carolina in late February ready to jam. You lady are awesome a true Rock n roll legend.
Ps congrats on getting your own Barbie you more than deserve it

just like the white winged dove
Sings a song, sounds like she's singing
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song, sounds like she's singing
Ooh, baby, ooh, said ooh
And the days go by, like a strand in the wind
In the web that is my own, I begin again
Said to my friend, baby (everything stopped)
Nothin' else mattered
He was no more than a baby then
Well he seemed broken-hearted
Something within him
But the moment that I first laid
Eyes on him, all alone
On the edge of seventeen
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song, sounds like she's singing
I said ooh, baby, ooh, said ooh
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song, sounds like she's singing
I said ooh, baby, ooh, said ooh
Well, I went today
Maybe I will go again tomorrow
Yeah yeah, well, the music there
Well, it was hauntingly familiar
Well, I see you doing what I try to do for me
With the words from a poet and a voice from a choir
And a melody, and nothing else mattered
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song, sounds like she's singing
I said ooh, baby, ooh, said ooh
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song, sounds like she's singing
I said ooh, baby, ooh, said ooh
The clouds never expect it when it rains
But the sea changes colours
But the sea does not change
So with the slow, graceful flow of age
I went forth with an age old desire to please
On the edge of seventeen
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song, sounds like she's singing
I said ooh, baby, ooh, said ooh
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song, sounds like she's singing
I said ooh, baby, ooh, said ooh
Well, then suddenly there was no one
Left standing in the hall, yeah, yeah
In a flood of tears
That no one really ever heard fall at all
Well, I went searchin' for an answer
Up the stairs and down the hall
And not to find an answer
Just to hear the call
Of a nightbird singing, "Come away"
(Come away, come away)
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song, sounds like she's singing
Ooh, baby, ooh, said ooh
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song, sounds like she's singing
I said ooh, baby, ooh, said ooh
Well I hear you in the morning
And I hear you at nightfall
Sometimes to be near you
Is to be unable to feel you, my love
I'm a few years older than you
(I'm a few years older than you) my love
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song, sounds like she's singing
Ooh, baby, ooh, said ooh
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song, sounds like she's singing
Ooh, baby, ooh, said ooh
