Almost an Angel

Editorial Reviews
Live Magazine, October 2000
Catie's born with the gift of a languid larynx. Her voice has the potential to draw you into her essence

Mean Street Magazine, January 2002
"Sunset Room manages to mix the old with the new to create an intoxicating sonic cocktail"

Album Description
A future-retro mix of acoustic and electronic instruments, tied together by jazz-driven vocals, blending down-tempo, electronica rock, jazz, soul, R&B, lo-fi, blues, and indie-pop, blurring the lines completely to form the Sunset Room sound.

      Album Description

      Here it is, The new album from Walker and the group of musicians known as the Brotherhood of the Grape. 14 new songs from the former singer/songwriter of the critically acclaimed alternative/rock band Q-South. The one and only rock/soca artist has done it again."Almost Homeless" the C.D. sounds like an Angel and a Devil fighting on the Shoulders of Charles Bukowski. Walkers vocal are raw and beautiful, and the songs are deep and heartfelt.

      5 out of 5 stars As irresistible as a ý97 Napa Cab.......2003-08-21

      Almost Homeless is an engaging first offering from Walker and a cast of South Queens bar band all-stars. Walker and Ed Klinger his primary collaborator have been fixtures on the NY music scene since the formation of their seminal alt-rock band Q-South in the 90's. This disc reveals a more mature writing style which manages to be comforting and edgy at the same time. The lyrics weave a tapestry of love, loss, hope, and hate. The melodies are engaging, with harmonies on several tunes that would make Lennon and McCartney proud. The fourth cut "What Went Wrong" has a 60's soul pop hook that is so infectious you'll find yourself humming it in the shower. "Vacilador" (Steinbeck reference??) is an upbeat pop tune that will keep your feet tapping. "What About Now" paints lyrical visions not unlike a Hemmingway novel. It's been a while since I've encountered a CD that never seems to get tired. Almost Homeless has broken the one hit per disc trend of recent pop music. It's thoroughly enjoyable from the moment you draw the cork, until its crisp finish. Do yourself a favor, and pick up this disc, it will not disappoint.

      I don't usually listen to jazz, i suppose that's what you could class this album as, sunset room are a very unknown band, that now a days does not mean they are bad, your first impression may be that there are only 9 tracks on this cd but the sound quality and the detail on the songs are sublime. The opener, 'smoke' is a blend of moody and melodic fantasy of a womans desire while the following tracks sustain the album adrift along with your sober mind. I'd say the weakest tracks are the interlude which is a naughty addition and candlon, the ender which is a shame but
      to compete with the rest of the album is a high target, a solid buy for both newcomers and fans of the genre. I hope this band make it big time like they deserve to.
