Details: Amazon.ca Alana Davis' debut Blame It On Me delves deep into themes of non-conformity and individualism, presented largely as jazzy lullabies. Though Davis has confessed to not being very hip to the sorority of modern vocalists, she opens the record with a reworking of Ani DiFranco's "32 Flavors." But Davis is no elder stateswoman, either. At 23, the New Yorker is just coming into her own, and the subject matter of her songs shows an artist with a youthful perspective - "The weight of the world has fallen/ and the rubble is at my feet," she sings on The Weight of the World" - even though she has the voice of someone twice her age. It's almost as if she's out to assert her unique place in the circuit of singer-songwriters by returning to the heart and soul that made them so popular in the first place. --Nick Heil Product Description Alana Davis's Elektra debut is a remarkable collection that introduces a talent wise beyond her years. Drawing on influences as diverse as Stevie Wonder, Joni Mitchell and Charlie Parker, Alana's songs are smart, hip and soulful and highlight her earthy sensuous voice. Blame It on Me was produced by Ed Tuton, who worked with Maxwell on his breakthrough debut. 1st single: "32 Flavors." on the heels of several dates on the Lilith Fair tour, Alana will now tour on her own.
