BBC Review
Theres melancholy underneath just about everything Shelby Lynne comes out with Not surprising considering the hard start she had in life Melancholia though has been a valuable underpinning for many songwriters and when mixed with a little wry humour its very effective
And thats what we have here Personal songs ranging from Alibi the thoughts of a woman as she starches the collar of her cheating husbands shirt to Something to be Said About Airstreams extolling the virtues of the iconic trailer

Her appealing unpredictability is occasionally let down by an overreliance on clich though In Like a Fool she falls back on lines about clowns and how love is blind Since everything else is so endearingly quirky its a shame Lynne hasnt spent a bit more time on those words

Shelbys previous offerings have taken her through mainstream country western swing and big band to a tribute to Dusty Springfield Of this record she says I finally have the creative control Ive needed to get my vision out there She certainly has her stamp on it all the songs are hers and theyre set against the backdrop of her own strummed guitar That makes it very personal a session guitar player would never play like that which isnt to demean her technique in any way she accompanies herself better than anyone else could She knows where shes going

Tears Lies and Alibis is an album worth buying mainly for two reasons Firstly the opening track Rains Came It sits in what sounds like a familiar bed but doesnt quite go where you expect it to and is this time lyrically opaque Secondly you can drown in her voice It is fabulous not an inyourface listen to how many octaves I can leap sort of way but it effortlessly convinces you shes lived this stuff and means every word
