Robin Stone - "Rushmore" @ Score! Music Magazine

	Robin Stone - Rushmore
	Location	Greater Cleveland, Ohio
	Initial Impression	I was first introduced to Robin Stone live at a local Lakewood, Ohio club during a "singer/songwriter" showcase. It was a laid-back, mellow night which left me with the impression that Ms. Stone's work was more or less on the quiet side. With the first track of Rushmore I realized that I was mistaken. It's not the first time folks.
Notable Lyric	"You are my outfit. My most comfortable one." from "Separated"
Factoid	There's a cover of Marvin Gaye's "Inner City Blues" on this disc. Another interesting tidbit is that Robin owns her own record label called "She loves You Records".
Serve With	Blue Number Nine -- a band out of NYC.
Comments	Robin Stone has a magnificent voice. Crisp, clear and clean in her delivery (at the risk of making her sound like a breath mint), I'm reminded of Edie Brickell and the New Bohemians (think "What I Am") or Basia. Theres a large serving of jazz and a side of funk and blues ("Piece 'O Summer" brought to mind Blues Traveler) to the music, which adds a strong sense of diversity. The lyrics encompass relationships, lost loves, summer fun and even a bit of superstition and religion.
