The best debut ever
Rachel Rhodes is a highly talented singer . Rachel started off singing opera, emerging as a classical singer and appearing in operas. Performing in national and international tours and studying voice in Italy saw Rachel develop further as a singer. Finally however it was country music that saw Rachel blossom into the singer she is today. Just one short year after moving to Nashville Rachel has released her debut EP packed full of wonderful songs and great vocals. HEARTLAND is an outstanding debut EP showcasing Rachel’s talents and potential for the future. No Ordinary Night is a pop infused country song in the style of Taylor Swift. Rachel’s vocals are fresh and upbeat. A classic radio friendly song of the highest quality. Heartland, the title song, is one of those songs that makes you stop and listen no matter what you are doing. It is breathtakingly beautiful and such a wonderful country song. Rachel’s vocals are well suited to country music, they have a depth and a maturity way beyond Rachel’s young years. Soak It In is another charming country song featuring Rachel’s amazing vocals. Rachel mixes emotion and passion into her vocals perfectly. The end result is a stunning song. The Girl You Think You Love is another song of the highest quality. Again this song has the wow factor. Beautiful vocals adorn this song and the whole of this EP. Live On Love brings the EP to a wonderful conclusion. This is a slow pure country song. Enriched once again with Rachel’s mesmerising vocals this final offering is splendid. It is hard to find enough words to praise this EP. It is one of the best debuts I have heard in years, maybe ever.
