Lauren Faggiano and her big pipes are back with a funky, bluesy quintet named The Deep Blue Dream. It's a little smooth in spots but is still pumps and roars nice and raw on the inside. Just dig the way the opening cut gets the dusty-needle-through-a-Gramophone treatment. There are a coupla curve balls, like when the band gets a little reggae. This album swings nicely with an accessibility that'll surely draw folks deeper into Faggiano's music and perhaps deeper still into its origins.
Lauren Faggiano and Deep Blue Dream's CD release show happens Saturday, August 4, at Beale Street Café, 689 South Avenue, 271-4650, 9 p.m., free.
