Amelia White Follows Up Her Breakthrough “Rhythm Of The Rain” With “Love I Swore,” Produced By Kim Richey.
“Amelia White knows how to capture the jagged ways that individuals fall in and out of love and hope. On Love I Swore she conveys the depth of loss that often flows out of broken promises. Produced by Kim Richey, who joins White on background vocals on many of the songs, Love I Swore moves from rollicking rockers to smooth pop grooves.” Henry Carrigan NO DEPRESSION
“From optimism and sheer bliss that graced the first few tracks and at least one along the way, the album grows incrementally despairing lyrically, yet the hook-filled and varied musical accompaniment keeps the listener engaged to White’s consistently potent and verbally direct songwriting. Only the best singer-songwriters have such a gift and White has proven again that she’s one of the few.” Jim Hynes GLIDE
Love I Swore is a testament to White’s powers of persuasion — that is, her ability to involve the listener and leave behind an emphatic impression. It’s everything a set of songs should be — personal, provocative and flush with earnest emotion. As a result, Amelia White has made a definitive statement and also the most defining album of her career. The love she swears to is clearly evident throughout. (by Lee Zimmerman- THE ALTERNATE ROOT
“It’s been a while since I heard a record where every song is my favorite. The production is astoundingly sublime and thoughtful. This collection takes me calmly to the dark edge of town where civilization ends are nothing begins, offering no explanation other than the presence of a charitable breeze.” AMERICANA HIGHWAYS
“The Queen of the East Nashville Underground has seen and heard it all… to see and hear all that and experience her in her Unadorned splendor is a real treat” Amos Lee NO DEPRESSiON
“White writes the most compelling song about tedium since “Dock of the Bay.” Stuck in an unnamed airport, White gripes that she’s “stuck on the ground when I ought to be flying/sitting here watching my battery dying….. It’s silly to start making “best of” lists in mid-February (though, in fairness, a LOT of albums have already come out), but I’ll be surprised if Love I Swore doesn’t wind up somewhere on mine. It’s one I keep coming back to like a comfortable chair. Even if it’s a blue one.” Chris Griffy CONCERTHOPPER
