    The songs chronicle wrecked relationships from all sides, with Sweeney usually coming out on the losing end.

    Sweeney just gets the economy of country songwriting and the presence that the best country singers possess, and that innate understanding makes Concrete a tremendous, heady record.

    This Texas-bred singer knows how to convey heartfelt and complex emotions with one clever turn of a phrase.

    Concrete is gritty but so watered down by contemporary Nashville arrangements that nothing sticks.

    Sunny is the brightest new talent in country music. She stays mainstream with this album while also being very unique and different. Her voice is great, and this album is one of the best albums of the year.… Expand
