http://www.ameliawhite.com/ Rocket rearview — a shutdown-dictated effort that could have been a placeholder in White’s twenty-some year career of consistently good songs, critic love from npr and rolling stone, recordings and performances —turns out to be a breakthrough. These eleven songs pulse, throb and float like a Nashville backyard on a late summer morning. There’s an alley out back too, where the not-pretty parts of life unfold and do quiet battle with each other and with hard-working people like Amelia White, who make their way in the world through their art.
