JANN ARDEN
The album name Relish sums up Joan Osborne’s views on life in general; here is Roch Parisien’s take on the album as a whole (via Allmusic): “Grounded in blues, soul and gospel, the Kentucky native wields her gritty voice with personality and forceful presence, kind of Melissa Etheridge meets Sophie B. Hawkins with a splash of Jann Arden. Osborne’s passion for life oozes from the grooves. There’s an uplifting fervor to her material and delivery, as if every second, every note was being individually savored.”
