CARA DILLON has such an expressive and crystal clear soprano voice that she can glide across modern Americana, traditional ballad and modern pop with equal grace, as she does on her new album A Thousand Hearts. The common theme of this album, her first since the acclaimed Hill of Thieves in 2009, is affairs of the heart and Dillon, singing perhaps a semitone lower than a decade ago, is on superb form.
The album is produced and arranged by husband Sam Lakeman and features guest vocals from Timothy B Schmit (The Eagles), American singer/songwriter Aoife O'Donovan and English folk musician John Smith. Among the treats on this 11-song album are River, Run, a cover of a song from Nineties Lancaster indie pop act Suddenly Tammy!, and Shotgun Down The Avalanche, a take on Shawn Colvin's country music song. But Dillon is at heart a very fine folk singer, something she shows again with her touching take on the classic As I Roved Out. A welcome return
