With the release of Little Black Dress and Other Stories in 2006, Anny Celsi evoked comparisons to artists like Aimee Mann, Lucinda Williams, Suzanne Vega and Jackie DeShannon - all songwriters distinguished by a literary voice that is every bit as vital to the listener as her singing voice. Little Black Dress established Anny internationally as an artist worthy of a second listen. Her latest album, Tangle-Free World, was produced by Nelson Bragg, whose regular gig is percussionist/vocalist for The Brian Wilson Band (he appears on Brian's 'Smile' and 'That Lucky Old Sun' albums).
Continuing in the pop-noir vein of Little Black Dress, Tangle-Free World retains Anny's unique "beatnik cool" feel while expanding her musical landscape, with influences ranging from Jimmy Webb and Lee Hazlewood to The Byrds, Dusty Springfield and Burt Bacharach. Musical contributors include 60's chanteuse Evie Sands, Phil Parlapiano (John Prine, Grant Lee Buffalo), Carl Byron (Michelle Shocked, Jim Lauderdale), the late Amy Farris (Peter Case, Kelly Willis, Dave Alvin), and members of the Brian Wilson Band.
Intimate, truthful, and incisive, Anny's live shows combine Brill Building hooks with a storyteller's eye for detail. She returns to the Green Note this spring, accompanied by Dublin's own Duncan Maitland, whose lush and lovely CD "Lullaby for the 21st Century" was also a critical favorite.
Reviews for Tangle-Free World:
"... Byrdsian jangle and exquisite psyche-pop harmonies perfect for a long car ride...Fans of classic sixties pop influences should pick this one up right away." - Aaron Kupferberg, Powerpopaholic
"I have a feeling that a good many Maverick readers will readily embrace this excellent album... they don't come much better than Now You Can Hurt Me, which could have been a 1960's DeShannon classic or the country-flavoured First Love Freezes with its Byrds-vibe and lush string arrangement. Yeah, seek out and enjoy." - Alan Cackett, Maverick
"I was blown away by this CD from the very first listen....gorgeous, melodic ... virtually every song could be a single. One of the best albums of the decade." -- John Etherington, nickdrake.com
