And now for something completely different...

Steven Delopoulos was the opening act for a Caedmon's Call / MercyMe concert that my wife and I went to. By this time, the band Burlap to Cashmere was on an extended, if not indefinite, hiatus. My wife fell in love with his sound; unfortunately, it was bathroom time for me so I missed most of his performance. The following Monday, I was browsing our local Christian book store and saw the Burlap to Cashmere CD and picked it up for my wife. The cashier at the store said this was one of her favorite CD's. I have to agree. Burlap to Cashmere has a very unique sound which reminds me of Mediterranean and Caribbean folk music. The lyrics blend well with the music for an enjoyable fifty minutes. Songs like Digee Dime and Basic Instructions make you want to get up out of your seat and do some salsa dancing! While other tracks such as Treasures From Heaven and Mansions slow down to let you really absorb the words and feelings the band is trying to portray. This album comes highly recommended for anyone who likes a little variety in their music collection. View All Music And Book Reviews By YellowLab | View YellowLab's Profile
