Californian based singer/songwriter Mary Ott delivers a gorgeous, sparkling record that showcases her crystalline voice, her inspired songcraft and a refreshing approach toward musical arrangement.

    A delectible track, the opening, ¡°From My Room¡± is a skilfully arranged array of passionate vocals, great guitar and neat keyboard passages. The melody is simply enchanting and instantly accessible without crossing too far info pure pop territory.

   ¡°Smack Dab in the Middle¡±, a co-write with husband Mark Segal, also delivers the goods.

Effectively blending strong emotional vocals with a gentle modern pop musical track.

   ¡°The Web Unwinds¡± and ¡°Goin¡¯ Nowhere Fast¡± seem to unfold like a dark-hued flower, shimmering in the tremulous daylight of the artist¡¯s echoes.

   The production is flawless on ¡°He Believes¡±, which sounds joyous and silky. Mary and co-producers Mark Indictor, Mark Segal and of course the pickers, have come up with a rare rhythmic urgency on ¡°Revelation City¡±.
