MIDNIGHT RADIO

Produced by Katy Moffatt and Tom Russell
Released 1996

"If ever there was the perfect singer-songwriter, it is Katy Moffatt. Her voice is perhaps the most searingly beautiful thing you'll ever hear." —Nick Dalton, Daily Express (London)

Katy Moffatt's Midnight Radio beams from the crossroads where country, folk and "mature" pop meet—with a sign pointing to Texas. The spare, well-crafted songs, most by Moffatt and musical partner Tom Russell, frame her rich, thick soprano. The best tracks are evocative ballads like "Wings of a Blackbird," "The Sound of One Heart Breaking" and "Sparrow of Swansea (for Dylan Thomas)." The exquisite "Nazareth to Bethlehem" is a rare gift: an original Christmas song. —USA Today
