Seriously though, how am I just now finding this almost ten years after it’s release? Brandi Carlile does things with her voice that would snap the vocal chords of mere mortals. Emphasized by the orchestra, this album ebbs and flows and then swells to a breaking. You add in an electric guitar and a classic set of drums and you have an incredibly dramatic sound that you won’t find anywhere else.

May I start a petition for another utterly amazing live Brandi album, including her songs from the last eight years?

Wow I have been listening to her stuff over the past week and I am impressed.

I've been a huge fan for years and finally saw Brandi live in Clearwater in a 600-seat historic theater. She (and the twins) are amazing - both recorded and live. There aren't many artists that sound this good in person. Brandi has a phenominal voice and is an amazing musician and entertainer. She said a new album is coming in May and I can't wait. I have all her music and am super excited for more. Everything she does is great!

This is a very good album and one, I am sure people would like. The crap that is passed off as music today and this does not get on the front page. And where was this so called Genius! I own Brandi's other music, why did this not come up. Had to find this on my own. Still love ITunes but come on let's promote real talent.

This is the best live album you will ever hear! You get to hear how Brandi interacts with the audience. The orchestra adds an unbelievable kick to every song. During every song you will feel like you are actually there watching the performance live (I envy those who were able to be at this concert!)!!! This album will blow you away with Brandi's voice and the heart that the orchestra is able to add to each song.

Last night Brandi opened for Ray Lamontagne in Charlottesville. I have to admit I didn't think I would enjoy the show. But from the minute Brandi Carlile hit the stage, she was fantastic. I bought the album right after their set and I was not disappointed. I would have bought a ticket just to hear her and the band play. Today I'm looking through iTunes looking for other tracks to add to my library. She is just that good.

Cannot believe Brandi and her fellow artists are not huger than huge by now. Perhaps the intimate stage is more to their liking. This group dynamic, the smooth, the raw, the most tender of sounds from these people is indescribably delicious. Don't miss a live concert if you have the opportunity. Seriously.
