Josie Waverly is a new name that has recently come my
way. Already an established performer she has shared the
stage with the likes of Tim McGraw, Sawyer Brown and Charlie
Daniels. Josie Waverly comes from Rochester, New York, where
she has opened "Josie's Country Jukebox", a country
music dance club and restaurant.
New York State is not by any means a notable epicentre
of country music and this is aptly reflected in the style
of music that is heavily featured throughout a greater proportion
of this album. Falling very much into the current category
of Nashville Pop with a traditional country music underpinning
of fiddle and steel backing, this self-titled CD, will ideally
draw the attention of the country music modernist.
Josie Waverly has a sensational voice and a wide vocal
range that she uses to considerable effect. Setting off
at a fast pulse, "Bad Dog No Biscuit" sees Waverly
performing with plenty of attitude on this fun song. Josie
Waverly can also handle the big production ballads to perfection,
as she proves on several occasions with; "I'll Get
Back To You", "Starting Now",
"Who Cries
This Time" and "Believe In Me".
A great story song comes with "Jessie Didn't Have
A Thing On You" (which reminds me a little of Linda
Davis's "Company Time"). More sassy numbers come
with Loretta Lynn's "Don't Come
Home A Drinking" and Lou T. Josie's "Bad Whiskey". Josie Waverly
is a force to watch for. With a voice like her's, somebody
is going to take this bright vocalist to higher things; it's just a matter
of time!!!
