Veteran folk-pop singer-songwriter Carrie Newcomer returns with the lovely GEOGRAPHY OF LIGHT. A full band recording that frames Newcomer's warm, burnished vocals and delicate acoustic guitar with piano, strings and percussion, GEOGRAPHY OF LIGHT recalls such vintage singer-songwriters as Joni Mitchell and Carole King on mature, thoughtful songs like "There Is A Tree" and "A Map of Shadows." Other highlights include "A Mean Kind of Justice" and "You'd Think By Now."

Harp (magazine) (p.115) - "Carrie Newcomer imparts weighty wisdoms and searches for universal truths...grafting complex verse to the sweetest, un-fussiest of post-folk, country-informed, pop-shaded melodies..."
