Suppose this might fall into "heavy guitar"?

Yes, I would call it "heavy guitar", but I was young enough to enjoy it back in the day. Smile

Listened to this on the way home in the car. A lot of gospel & blues influences in this release. Too early to say whether it's great. Either way I still love her voice.
Official release date in the States is 28th of September, but I suppose coz we're in little old NZ it doesn't matter if it comes out early !!
