Catherine has long demonstrated the potential to be one of Britain's top CCM names and now at last her debut CD has arrived. Her voice is a beautiful thing. Someone once described it as a cross between Kate Bush and Tom Amos. I'm not sure I fully agree but Catherine's vocal approach does have a wistful poignancy perfectly suited to the melodic lilt of her self-composed songs here. Lyrics are reflective, insightful and stem from a life that has seen pain as well as victory while the production shows that Paul Hodson is adept at the reflective art pop of Catherine as well as heavy rock. If you've seen the delightful Ms Francis in concert you'll want this fine album.
