NZ Girl :: Brooke Fraser -
What to do with daylight
2003
Having a professional and exquisite
sound at 19 is pretty damn impressive, but the fact that Ms. Brooke Fraser wrote
every song on this 11 track album, What To Do With Daylight, sung each to
mind-blowing, crystal clear precision, then played a range of its instrumentals,
is just outstanding!
Definitely touching on an Anika Moa feel, yet with a twist of crisp
individuality, there's no doubting it, this young lady from Naenae (Wellington)
is going places fast. Her ability to create well-crafted songs, as well as her
talent to 'play' her voice like a true instrument, has meant normally harsh
critics are spreading the word as much as everybody else, that Brooke Fraser is
one to watch for in the future.
The response from listeners has been incredible; its nearly impossible to find a
young adult who isn't listening to Brooke's music. Why? Because the music
whispers and carry's straight from the heart, balanced with a voice that will
stop you in your stride. A blissful, saintly, expressional voice from an angelic
persona, lyrics that use subtle yet perfectly picturing metaphors, Brooke is New
Zealand's newest shining star with a go-out-and-give-it-a-go-attitude that makes
everyone smile, inspiring like minded individuals to follow their dream.
Standout specials:
# Arithmetic
# Waste Another Day
# Saving The World
Expect to hear these tracks played at weddings over the summer months. The
girl's got a gift and listening to it has been a musical pleasure. With a little
more exposure and experience, Brooke Fraser will be a worldwide household name.
Keep doing us proud Brooke!!
