Dafni
Charlie's Lonely Sunday
Boronda Records
Dafni has released some records before this and this new effort certainly has class. She records music that reminds me of Jolie Holland and others who
make old time music seem new. "Dimes" is a fine example with a charming lyric and an accordion in tow. "Broken Letter" is a blue, true Americana with Dafni
singing wonderfully. "Down and Dirty" is a humorous song with a nice instrumental backing. "Lonely Sunday" has a fabulous tuna and is a real standout song.
Dafni's vocal charisma allows her to sound unhurried but determined as she sings of love.
Dafni's made another record she can be proud of and that should appeal to many listeners.
