A stunning debut from April Hill -- a young singer, but one who already seems to have the poise and depth of pros from many years back! April's got a mature, confident approach to her music -- one that allows her to open up warmly with a somewhat laidback style -- a mode that's a bit jazzy at times, with lots of gentle inflections on the vocals. There's almost a Jill Scott-like quality to this approach -- but without as much of the hip hop influence -- and production on the record is by Marlon Saunders, who further enforces the warmth and classic elements in the music. Titles include "The Search", "Manipulation", "Hope He'll Be Happier", "You Got Me", "Feelin You", "I Wanna Be Free", "No More Tears", and "Today".
