Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Sixpence None The Richer's eponymous third album is more than the sum of the irresistibly saccharine single "Kiss Me" and their infamously wide-eyed cover of The La's "There She Goes". The band formed in Texas where they began performing at Christian meetings, and religious imagery features a great deal on such tracks as "The Waiting Room". However, this does not weigh as heavy on the songs as might be expected. The sound is folky and delicate, the songwriting and arrangement surprisingly complex, with singer Leigh Nash's pretty voice complementing it well; comparisons to the Sundays are well deserved. In addition to tracks as breezy and catchy as "Kiss Me", there is also the haunting flamenco of "Puedo Escribir" and the luscious sadness of "Sister Mother". However unsettled the music becomes, Nash's voice keeps it uplifting. This is an album that makes listening easy. --Sarah Brinig


CD Description

To listen to the self-titled debut from awkwardly named trio Sixpence None The Richer is to stare unflinchingly into the face of late '90s folk-rock. The band is clearly influenced by what's gone before, but their sound is completely modern and original. Fronted by the stylised vocals of Leigh Nash, the band winsomely strums and croons its way through highly personal songs about finding one's way in the world. The influence of folk-poppers like 10,000 Maniacs and Mazzy Star can be heard throughout, in the intimate acoustic guitar rhythms and poignantly conversational vocals, but there's a more progressive Throwing Muses sound at work here as well, keeping SIXPENCE NONE THE RICHER from getting too dewy-eyed.

5.0 out of 5 stars More than a kiss, 22 Jul 2001
Most people will be aware of this band through the hit 'Kiss Me' and, in a way, that's a shame. 'Kiss Me' is a damn fine pop tune but there is a real depth to the ability of this band, particularly the literate songwriting from Matt Slocum.

Going beyond the kiss, listeners will be wowed by carefully constructed melodies and thoughtful lyricism of songs such as 'Anything' (about the desperation of getting a record released!), 'The Lines of the Earth' and 'Moving On.' My favourite, though, is 'Sister, Mother' but there really isn't a dud track on this album. Outstanding.

5.0 out of 5 stars THE WARM SOUND OF SUMMER, 15 April 2005
By Kelvin MacGregor - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
Picked this album up on impulse because I've always loved those radio-friendly songs There She Goes and Kiss Me, which featured in the film She's All That and TV's Dawson's Creek.
There's something about this jangly American guitar band and their upbeat summer sound - plus singer Leigh Nash has that cutesy, girl-next-door voice that adds to the happy, feel good factor that singles out Sixpence None The Richer.
Guitarist Matt Slocum is such a fantastic songwriter - he composed most of the tracks himself. I especially like the song The Lines Of My Earth with its haunting melody and lovely line "This is the last song that I write, 'til you tell me otherwise."
I don't know if the band are still going, as I haven't heard of them for ages, but I do hope so otherwise.
Beautiful album that I just can't stop playing.
