Listen to Our Bright Future by Tracy Chapman
Tracy Chapman
Our Bright Future
Album · Singer/Songwriter · 2008
Released 20 years after her 1988 debut, Tracy Chapman’s eighth album is as effortlessly elegant and sharply written as ever. And while her social consciousness is present and correct, here it is somewhat tempered in favour of her singularly personal tone of voice and a playful approach to instrumentation. The piano-led, jazz-inflected “I Did It All” riffs on the idea of modern celebrity, while the wistful title track weaves together subtle organ and lilting mandolin.
