Eclectic pianist Eden Brent injects her gritty, rootsy music with spicy elements of the unmistakable Crescent City sound. She penned eight of the twelve tracks, the most she's written for a single record to date. They exhibit a keen sense of clever wordplay - 'In Love With Your Wallet' invokes the wry observations of fellow Mississippi muse Mose Allison, while the vaudeville throwback 'My Man' is peppered with double entendre. But there's also considerable nuance: the sly tenderness of the intimate 'If I Can't,' the anguish of 'Blues All Over,' and the soulful, heartbreaking ballad 'Leave Me Alone.'
