Synopsis
Product Description Dime Box is hell-bent on saving animals, righting the wrongs of this world and making good American music. Smooth sweet vocals meet lightning-fast picking, Dime Box are the girls next door, if the girls next door just happened to have a damn good country band. Sounds Like: Tammy Wynette singing Gram Parsons songs if Roy Acuff was backing her. |
CD Reviews11 Rootsy Country Gems Joe Beine | Denver, CO United States | 04/11/2008 (5 out of 5 stars) "This is the band Kristi Callan was born to be in. She's got the right style, the right voice and most importantly, the right boots. Her earlier bands, like Wednesday Week and Lucky, were cool in their own way, but Dime Box has just the right down home country sound for Kristi's voice.
Five and Dime Waltz has ten spicy originals ranging from the bounce of "High Road" to the plaintive "Somehow Somewhere." And one Dolly Parton cover that fits right in. Every song is a highlight, every detail is in the right place. The finely picked strings on the guitars and mandolin. The gentle brushes on the drums. The mournful violin playing. And Kristi's passionate singing. If your taste in country music leans toward Dolly Parton, Hank Williams and Johnny Cash, then you'll probably love this. And any album that mentions the dollar store in two different songs has got to be just right." |
