Giulia Millanta — Moonbeam Parade

Singer/songwriter/guitarist Giulia Millanta has released Moonbeam Parade, her fifth solo album of original work. She is helped out by fellow Austin, Texas artists David Pulkingham, Michael Fracasso, Charlie Sexton, Howie Gelb, and Kimmie and Gabriel Rhodes.

Sometimes there’s just nothing to write about when reviewing a new album. Such is the case here; it’s not about good or bad, it’s just that these songs don’t inspire, either musically or lyrically. Unfortunately, Ms. Millanta’s mid-range, tepid vocals don’t make up for the instrumental monotony.

The curse of crowdsourcing continues.

Essential Download: “R & R Suicide” (a knock-off version of a Jacques Brel-type song that works in its weirdness)
