Boston singer-songwriter Karaugh Brown announces the release of a new album, “Favorite Daughter.”
“Favorite Daughter” is the follow-up to Brown’s 2002 Bill Morrissey-produced release, “One Round Orange,” which prompted a nomination from the Boston Music Awards for Best New Singer/Songwriter that same year. Brown was critically lauded by Sing Out! magazine, Performing Songwriter magazine and noted as an artist to watch by Scott Alarik of the Boston Globe and Ted Drozdowski of the Boston Phoenix. As a result, Brown was invited to contribute a track from “One Round Orange” to Signature Sounds’ “Respond II” compilation, which included such luminaries as Suzanne Vega, Joan Baez, Ani Difranco and the Indigo Girls.
Karaugh Brown returned to Cambridge’s Hi-N-Dry studio last November to record “Favorite Daughter,” with co-producers Billy Conway (Twinemen, Morphine) and Dave Westner (Jabe). Sean Staples (Resophonics) came on board to play mandolin and Rob Laurens played bass. The group focused on creating “Favorite Daughter’s” sound, using “One Round Orange” as a starting point.
Brown’s songs have developed into something sophisticated and intensely personal over the past two years. She has begun to explore themes of love and affirmation apart from “One Round Orange’s” focus on mystery and sadness. “Favorite Daughter,” like “One Round Orange,” is suffused with images of classical art and Hopper-esque American landscapes, but it is also an album about family and the inextricable connections of the heart to home, parent and the transformative power of adulthood.
The band has crafted a lush, vivid and haunting music to support Brown’s work. Full of the gritty Americana that birthed her writing voice, “Favorite Daughter” is infectious and real, immediate to the ear and truthful to the head and heart.
