No Gimmicks
availability: via website click on shop or download from iTunes - search under Chick Atkinson
Chick has released No Gimmicks, the
follow-up to her acclaimed debut
'Free Range', and it's a
girl-powered treat for the ears.
No Gimmicks is an accomplished release,
with smooth production and excellent
musicianship. It's pure pop and because
it's the work of a singer/songwriter it is,
not surprisingly, driven by the songs and the singing. Themes cover the waterfront, from
traditional love songs to what Chick describes as "political pop."
It's not the kind of music that would give you a headache, unless you were the kind of
person who has an aural allergy to laid-back, mellow, acoustic sounds. There are a few
strings and some piano in there too, but the guitar and voice is really where it's at. Need
comparisons? Chick sounds like Joni Mitchell, Everything But The Girl, Jewel and,
naturally, Ani Difranco.
Highlights include the sing-along 'Sexuality,' but 'Same Difference' is also a beautifully
paced love song that's worth a listen. Despite the delicacy of the melodies, Chick turns in
some darker themes on this album, which hint at her richness as a songwriter and musical
storyteller. (July 2005 Rainbow Network)

Free Range
availability: via website click on shop or download from iTunes - search under Chick Atkinson
....Chick has a raspy, slightly breathless voice,
backed very simply by a guitar and the occasional
percussion instrument. Musically she draws
comparisons to the Indigo Girls and Everything
but the Girl's Eden album (i.e when EBTG were good). Although she is from the UK, Chick
has an American sound that puts her closer to Jewel than Eddie Reader.
The album opens with a distinctively Indigo Girls-esque. It reminds me a little of Michelle
Shocked in its jolly folk sound with thinly disguised dark lyrics... Will you stay? is a very
pretty love song about longing about struggling with feelings for someone that you
shouldn't love. It is a sweet, melodic track that makes you feel warm and fuzzy..... Free
Range is such a strong album that everyone I've played it to wants a copy. That is the best
recommendation I can think of for any artist!
