Anna Nalick - Wreck of the Day
Her record label cites Tori Amos and Fiona Apple. And the 20-year-old native of Glendora, California does have something in common with those artists: her producer, Eric Rosse, worked with Amos, while her drummer, Matt Chamberlain, recorded with both Amos and Apple. But Nalick lacks the depth of those artists. On tracks like “Breathe (2 a.m.),” “Citadel” and “Paper Bag,” she’s closer to Jewel, Meredith Brooks or Natalie Imbruglia. While Nalick’s debut album is respectable enough, it’s just not distinctive.
