Juniper

Ron and Lisa Potter make up Juniper, an original pop group with a nice line in catchy tunes. The title track sees them collaborate with rapper IKON with stunning results.

Lisa Potter's smooth vocals and the fluid melody provides a nice contrast to IKON's gruff delivery. "Believe" is a soulful song with a modern feel. There's a slight resemblance to Garbage but Lisa is a less icy singer than Shirley Manson.

"Hurt" is a sweet little ballad with a delightful melody and an insightful lyric. IKON returns for "Allegiance" and gives a lively performance. "Thornless Roses" is a marvelous, textured song.

This is a strong and assured debut by a talented group.
