Thank you Lizz, it was such a beautiful experience listening to your voice and songs live, I'll never forget that concert, I discovered your music when I was dealing with changes in my life and it helped me so much, we are the same age. I wrote a message here and I said "please come back to Spain" and a few days later I read you were coming to my home! you were amazing, almost magical, I was in tears most of the time!( nobody noticed haha!) thank you so much for your songs. Hope you are doing fine and please come back soon!!

Gets better each time

11/18/08 5:16 PM (GMT-08:00), by Alex6363

The sign of a truely amazing album is that it's gets better each time. The first time I heard " The Orchard", I was blown away. Now, after 6 months I still play it daily and each day gets better, however the volume is much higher. Please Lizz, come to Canada. You can stay at my place if you have to. I know you'd dig me.

Song for Mia

8/29/08 8:03 AM (GMT-08:00), by hEiDiaNnE

Lizz, i love your music. You are so talented! I could listen to the whole CD (The Orchard) over and over....I love every song, but I do have my favourites ofcourse (Song for Mia being one of them)...I stumbled across the CD at Starbucks...I saw it sitting there for a while and then I decided to just buy it one day because it looked so unique...and I am glad I did.  I just can't believe that I have never heard of you before. I am going to go buy your other two releases as well.  I hope you come to Toronto, Canada. I would love to see you perform.

 

"Strange"

8/5/08 11:47 AM (GMT-08:00), by brokenhearted

How bizarre, I just bought this CD, after it having been recommended to me.
I heard "Strange" for the first time, it is as if I wrote these lyrics... Is there somewhere that I can actually read the lyrics? I found it a very conforting song, since I have just been dumped by my boyfriend after he fell in love with another woman...

Lizz's music was recommended by CBS Good Morning. I purchased The Orchard and it's been the best purchase of music I have ever made.  Lizz has touched my life in every song on the CD.  Thank you for sharing your voice, lyrics and music.  The water was very cold when I fell and Lizz helped me back up.

Sheet music...

7/26/08 2:32 PM (GMT-08:00), by Maria1

Dear Lizz,
I absolutely love your music and voice since I was introduced to your amazing sounds back in 05. My voice has a similar resonance to yours, and I sang "Wake Up Little Sparrow", and "Open Your Eyes, You Can Fly" acapella for a small group of people at a show I was in. Since then, I have been drawn to know more about your work and have continued to purchase your music. You challenge me to continue to grow in my voice and share my gift with others as you are doing. My dilemma is finding your sheet music. I have spent hours doing research to find songs in print with no luck. I am interested in the songs I mentioned above, and many others as well. From your Orchard cd, I am working on "I Idolize You" and "Speak Your Heart". The latter being a big favorite. I am hoping you can assist me further in providing the music in print. I love sharing your music with others.

Many blessings for continued success in living all your dreams...
Thanks so much,
Maria

Angels touch us at the holiest and earthiest of places,
but they seldom leave us the same way they found us.
You, melted my heart, Lizz... you are truly blessed!

Ms Wright you have a marvelous gift in your voice. Thank you for sharing it with us. I hope to catch a live performance one of these days. I am pleased you chose to work with Joey and John from Calexico - this is an interesting musical mix and honours both parties. I love your original writing and I also very much enjoyed your cover of The Band's It Makes No Difference - you bring a unique soulfulness to this great song by the late great Rick Danko. Best Wishes for the future. 

 

Thank you!

just saw your show at the Arc in Ann Arbor! I've been listening to your music for a few years and just want to say "Thank you" for the inspiration! Ms. Wright and the band were such an inspiration to see!! Please come again next year!

What a Great Voice.  I started with Salt and couldn't stop playing Soon as I get home, and Goodbye. Then Silence started to haunt me.  So I  had to have Dreaming Wide Awake, and The Orchard. So many great songs.  Thank you for your voice. It really goes right to my soul.

I also have the same comments as blockhead below. I even took my copy back to HMV to complain. After the sales assistant checked other copies in the store he said there was nothing he could do as it was the way the music was produced. Please explain to us all the reason behind this or is it something to do with the title of the track " Strange"?

Otherwise an excellent CD. Good vocals and rhythm. I especially enjoyed the second track "My Heart'. Well done.

Dear Lizz and Band, and whoever else might get a chance to see Lizz on tour, I'm still amazed by last night's concert in Geneva/Switzerland. Thank you for a wonderful, but all too short evening ... I could've stayed all night. Your voice just blows me away - and the musicians (guitar! keyboard!) and your wonderful background singer were amazing, too. I can just recommend anybody to see you on tour in Germany, Ireland, Belgium ... I wish I could come along. Thank you!

Lizz Wright has divine voice. She proved it one more time on this album.
In my opinion, The Orchard is the best album of Lizz Wright so far.
 Influence of Calexico is obvious, and it gives special 'taste' to the album.
 I cannot wait to see her live in Utrecht, NL, next month.

The Orchard is my first lizz Wright album!!!


Its a truly Beautiful album,  it took me on many different travels and to many different places through my life and seeing some of the pictures of Lizz at the orchard and her home makes me feel its a very personal album of hers also!!!

 

Coming Home

3/23/08 4:53 PM (GMT-08:00), by Leo1947

I've been a fan since Salt and each CD has a song that I play over and over like salt on the first and Hit the Ground Run on the next,  but this one my sista not only has another favorite "When I fall" but coming home laid the foundation for the eulogy I did at the "Life Celebration" I did for my 94 year on Mother.

The words brought healing and acceptance to me and my family

Thank you
Elder Claude Bowen

Just heard the new CD, what a voice.  Its a beautiful recording.

 

The Orchard

I have listened to The Orchard twice. It is lovely, but at this stage it hasn't grabbed me like Salt and Dreaming Wide Awake. Perhaps it will take a bit more listening. One strange aspect was when I put it in my CD player it showed 13 tracks. On the CD cover only 12 tracks are listed. Track 12, "Strange" plays for exactly 2 minutes before before any music is heard. Then there is another track after "Strange" that begins with the opening words "It makes no difference". I would be interested to hear from Verve why the "Strange" track has the 2 minute silent introduction and what the name of track 13 really is!  After listening to the CD on my stereo and noticing these oddities, I put it in my computer to see if I could work out the cause of the problems. Up came a very nice video of Lizz singing "My Heart" and that was it. That was all that would play. It doesn't mention anywhere on the cover that the disc is unable to be played on a computer. Though I doubt that this will stop anyone copying or ripping the CD.
