It may be her haunting, husky voice that first grabs a listener, the way it glides over melodies like smoke, but it’s the songwriting that Spicer really wants you to hear. Her songs have equal parts ache and grit, with topography that covers farmlands, quirky roadside stops, and an occasional turn down a dark alley with flickering neon. Raised in rural Pennsylvania, currently residing in California, she fuses together all the places she calls home. Wanderlust spills from her songs, influenced by Texas troubadours, Tibetan mountaintops, and Hollywood bars. Or, as she might say with a slight drawl: “Water, wine and whiskey”.
Her new album, 'Wow and Flutter', has made many critics’ best-of lists, and was lauded as one of the best albums, any genre, in the last decade by 'Popdose Magazine'.
'No Depression' exclaimed: “While it is only my opinion that Spicer is going to be the next member of the Nashville Royal family, it certainly helps my argument that I’m not the only critic saying as much”.
