Great Song Writing and Singing Performance - Destined to become a Classic CD!

There is something very spiritual or mystical in the angel like voice of country singer Alexandra Lajoux. Her CD “My Country: ‘We Thank You’ and Other Songs from the Heart of Alexandra Lajoux” is a musical experience – one that brings great pleasure for the listener. She explores all the emotions of the heart and the mind with one of the finest collections of well written lyrics. She is a musical poet. When her music and the words are blended together there is something very magical that happens.

It is hard to describe what kind of music genre this is. It seems to be country but it crosses into gospel, folk, and even bluegrass. She does not limit her expression of feelings by any defined genre and explores her inner soul through her music. One of the wonderful features of this CD is that it comes with a pull out cover. It has many pages and contains all the words to her songs. That makes listening to them even more enjoyable as you can follow the lyrics along.

She has talent as a song writer and a singer and her work is truly inspirational. Her tribute song “We Thank You” reaches out to our service men and women and is one of her highlights of this multi-track CD. The music is easy to listen to and even though it pulls all kinds of emotions it is relaxing as well. This CD is a truly gift to all of those who are lucky enough to listen to it. It is a must buy for your record collection!
