Stacy Grubb|CMN Review

West Virginia's Stacy Grubb is a relative 'unknown' name and voice in the bluegrass music world...but that is about to
change in a hurry with the release of this debut album, which not only features her soft, mellow vocal styling (which
has an angelic Alison Krauss feel to it), but also showcases Grubb's interesting songwriting talents (she wrote 9 of
the album's 12 selections). Hurricane, produced by Ronnie Cochran, also sports the Who's Who of Nashville studio
bluegrass session players which ultimately adds yet another glossy dimension to this album.

There are many superb moments to be found on the album, from the opening track, energetic title tune (which
features harmony vocals by award-winning bluegrass duo [Jamie] Dailey & [Darrin] Vincent), to more mellow and
vocally haunting efforts in Time Hasn't Changed Anything and Runaway Train.

Stacy Grubb also shows she can get a bit edgy with her songwriting, injecting some of the dark side of life in her
story song Violet Steele. Here's a sampling:-

Don't turn your back on a yellow-haired girl
With satin flowers sewn into her dress
For a dime she'll mend that hole in your heart
For your wallet she'll shoot you dead!!

Stacy Grubb's songwriting will likely be a door-opener for her in the bluegrass community, but her passion-filled
vocals could be the ticket that will soon make her a name to be reckoned with in country and bluegrass.
