Alex Vissia - Young Love Music CD

Since the release of her debut album (A Lot Less Gold; November 2011), Alex Vissia has been touring Western Canada steadily. From the lush greenery of Vancouver Island, to the wide prairie skies of Manitoba, Alex has been receiving praise for her powerhouse vocals and lyrical prowess. Young Love is Alex's second album, a six-song project featuring three original songs as well as three re-arranged classics. It's more laid back than A Lot Less Gold, with more weight in the sound, grit on the Gretsch, and confidence in the vocals. If A Lot Less Gold is a full-bodied glass of red, then Young Love is closer to a heart-wrenching swig of whiskey. Drink up. 'The best tracks on Young Love are the ones Alex penned herself; she is a brilliant and thoughtful lyricist. The title track is fantastic; "Letting Go" and "Room to Grow" are both sentimental and self-explanatory. Those three alone would make a pretty impressive EP.' - Nick Murray, Greengrass Radio.
