Tell me more: Released back on June 28, don't let Auburn's Game Of Faith escape your attention. The U.K.-based group has released a 14-track disc that blends blues and Americana in spades with touches of other styles adding to the musical magic. Led by talented singer-songwriter Liz Lenten, the group also features guitarist Thomm Jutz (who recorded, mixed and produced the new album), bassist Mark Fain, drummer Lynn Williamsand harmony vocalist Britt Savage. Armed with a voice that is decidedly husky, Lenten's soprano simultaneously carries an emotional torch that lights up the ballads and mid tempo tracks that fill the disc. Among the many standouts on the album is the slow bluesy title track, uptempo "I Don't Love Him" (where Jutz shows off plenty of tasty guitar licks), the jazz-meets-blues gem "Prosecco-fuelled Profiles," infectious pop-rock oriented "Trinidad" and undeniable "Spoke in the Wheel" with its wonderful chorus.
