Introspective, pensive, and contemplative are a few of the adjectives that come to mind when
describing Bare Bones, Madeleine Peyroux's third album for Decca/Rounder. But don't be fooled by
the title, the music is not "stripped to the bone", quite the contrary. The music is lush, like falling into
a down comforter, enveloping the senses with warmth.
Peyroux had a hand writing all the songs on the album, including collaborations with producer
Larry Klein, Walter Becker and Joe Henry. With 'Bare Bones' Peyroux had crafted her best album yet,
an artistic breakthrough that finds her sublime voice wrapped around a collection of personal
songs that she helped craft from their inception.

Professional Reviews

Entertainment Weekly (p.61) - "[I]t's interesting to hear that Victrola voice meet a more contemporary sensibility....[With] smart and emotional material." -- Grade: B

Down Beat (p.80) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "Peyroux still sings in dark colors, but she makes a conscious attempt to rise above mere melancholy with her lyrics and vocals."

JazzTimes (p.96) - "[The] pleasure -- from the lonely chamber folk of 'Our Lady of Pigalle' to the sweetly barren jazz of 'Somethin' Grand' -- is all ours as Peyroux wheedles and piques the most from every lyrical phrase."

Dirty Linen (p.62) - "Peyroux's voice continues to be the main attraction...it's mood now varies more widely, expanding the breadth of its emotional shading..."

Mojo (Publisher) (p.98) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "[S]he sings with deeper warmth and presence than ever before....With measured words balanced by easy, glowing grooves filled with Hammond, fiddle and her own sweet-spot acoustic rhythm."

Paste (magazine) (p.64) - "Peyroux crosses over into full-fledged-songwriter terrain, penning or co-authoring all 11 tracks....The quality of her performance remains extraordinarily high..."
