I'm in love, again. Hasn't happened to me this bad since Allison Krauss. Her name is Maia Sharp and she is all a man could ever ask for. From "Red Dress" to "Come Back to Me", this woman rocks. Her CD is "Fine Upstanding Citizen" and it's real good. Real good.

Thanks for the tip on this one Randy. There are so many talented Singer-Songwriters out there that never are given the credit they are due and wind up in the cut out bins for time eternal. The only places you here them are on some of the shows on NPR or community stations like KDHX. She would definitely be one that I would slot into an Americana format but sadly, we have none of that here in St. Louis.
I've been watching Maia grow into one hell of a performer since '97. She's really remarkable live and writes these memorable play it again and again songs that hook into your heart. I'm a huge Allison fan as well. Hopefully (and then again, not so hopefully ... 'cause I'll miss out on her intimate small venues) Maia will crack the charts at some point.
