No Depression, Nov/Dec 2006

LIBBY JOHNSON, Annabella (Wrong Records).
This is a wondrous debut, perfect in its modest way. The hooks are unassailable, the singing and playing are felt, the arrangements an autumnal cross between Lucinda-bred Americana and kudzu-style indie rock. Traces of everyone from Liz Phair to Chrissie Hynde, Susan Cowsill to Sheryl Crow, can be heard. But ultimately, Johnson ..- who previously made three records with her sister Carrie in a group called 22 Brides ..-brooks no comparisons. Annabella is..... ..- complete and self-possessed. Inspirational lines abound, all of them delivered in Johnson..s gauzy yet grounded soprano, but the following (a strutting nod to Bob?) portends greatness: ..Paleface Cinderella is preparing for the war/With her suitcase and her hand grenades, she..s pounding down your door/This same sleeping beauty, who said she..d been redeemed/She..s kissin.. and tellin.. everyone exactly what she..s seen...BILL FRISKICS-WARREN/NO DEPRESSION/DEC/2006

"Johnson’s vocals are versatile—alternately tough and tender, changing as the song demands, and offering something to please every listener". -Mare Wakefield, Performing Songwriter, March/April 2007

“Spellbinding” -Philadelphia Inquirer

“...beautiful, bittersweet....moves seamlessly from searching and yearning to bruised and ominous....” Gene Santoro, New York Daily News

“Johnson’s vocals are versatile- alternately tough and tender, changing as the song demands, and offering something to please every listener” Mare Wakefield, Performing Songwriter

“...an unexpected treasure....one of the best debuts of the year...” Steve Greenlee, Boston Globe

Agartha (sometimes Agartta, Agharti or Agarttha) is a legendary city
that is said to reside in the Earth's core. It is related to the Hollow
Earth theory and is a popular subject in Esotericism.

Tibet

In Tibet, there is a major mystical shrine also called 'Patala,'
which is said by the people there to sit atop an ancient cavern and
tunnel system, which reaches throughout the Asian continent and
possibly beyond. The Nagas also have an affinity with water, and the
entrances to their underground palaces are often said to be hidden at
the bottom of wells, deep lakes and rivers."



this pick reminds me of this video.
