    This record touched my soul deeply. Full of profound songs that mix country, pop and symphonic arrangements. Her voice is also wonderful. A 9 out of 10...

    So while Monroe may not be familiar with ornithology, she does know her musical traditions.

    The bluntness of Monroe’s lyrics lends depth to the self-portrait she sculpts in these songs, revealing just how much she longs for and cherishes human connection.

    Sparrow transcends its own tastefulness, and odds are excellent you’ll find it gorgeous.
