On this review I will be reviewing the new Kat Edmonson album which was released on the 25th April 2018. It's the fourth studio album from 'Kat Edmonson' called "Old Fashioned Gal".
Kat Edmonson is an American singer, songwriter from Houston Texas. Who calls her music 'Vintage Pop'. She is more of a Jazz pop artist. Kat grew up with her mother who enjoys traditional pop from the 40s, 50s. Kat auditioned for the second season of American Idol back in 2002 she was one of the 48 contestants invited to Hollywood. Kat began writing her first song when she was 9 while riding the bus to school. In 2002 after a year in Charleston college in South Carolina she moved to Austin to pursue a music career. This is my first time discovering Kat Edmonson I have never listened to her music before. But since listening to Kat I feel like traditional pop from the 40s, 50s is making a comeback to 2018. Her voice is soothing it's beautiful. Traditional jazz pop is a genre that I do not listen to but it's really interesting how Kat is bringing that type of music back to a new generation. Discussing about Kat's discography she has released four studio albums "Take To The Sky" her debut album released back in 2009. Her second album "Way Down Low" was released back in 2012. Her third studio album "The Big Picture" was released back in 2014. Which brings us now to her new album "Old Fashioned Gal" I have not listen to her first three albums so I do not have much to say. But I listened to her new album. Since hearing "Old Fashioned Gal" what did I think of it? I was impressed that this type of music is here in 2018. I thought it was a good album I definitely need to check out her other albums. It's a good album it's a relaxing pop album. It's exactly how traditional pop sounded like back in the 40s, 50s.
Moving on my favourite tracks starting with "Sparkle And Shine" I was mind blown on how amazing this track sounds. Great opener to the album. "A Voice" a fantastic track with great lyrics it's jazzy. "If" a brilliant track her voice is so soothing. "Old Fashioned Gal" a catchy track which I liked. My least favourite track was "I'd Be A Fool" it's okay I guess not the strong as the others.
Overall I liked this album. It was traditional pop being back into a new generation. I would listen to this album again if I feel like it. I am giving this album a 7/10.
