"Safer than A Baby" by Jacqueline AmidyTHIS 2004 release of Australian music is a gorgeous mix of Jacqueline's acoustic guitar and thrilling vocals, fused with jazz-inspired drums. This is a project in the simple pleasure of the acoustic live sound.Always difficult to slot an original music but, think John Mayer, beside Joni Mitchell, listening to Billy Holiday, and considering going to a Ben harper concert. mmm In other words, Jacqueline is one of those rare intuitive performers who always deliver intense, raw, real, but with humour and interest."safer than a baby" was conceived in a wooden cottage - and recorded live to enable Jacqueline to explore the acoustic soundscapes in replicating the essence of live playingLive and recorded, Jacqueline Amidy has a passionate and astonishing voice, and a unique tilt on playing the guitar. SHE REALLY PLAYS. These songs are a welcome surprise to a waiting world. Both Jacqueline's voice and guitar set her apart as a unique and exciting Australian artist. With a lush sound that seems too layered to come from a duo/trio, live and recorded, Jacqueline plays heart-felt melodic songs of love, lust, departure, anger, seduction and pain.Intense and delicate.Jacqueline, with Julia Day on drums, and an ocassional double bass, delivers her CD of original songs of love, lust, departure, anger, seduction and pain.
