Home Truthsalbum Home Truths

 

Home Truths is her Cyndi Boste's acclaimed debut album, released in 1999. Produced by Kerryn Tolhurst, this is the album that caught the attention of music critics the world over, which lead to reviews in the highly regarded US country/roots bible No Depression, New York's Villiage Voice, and the LA Times.

After years spent lost in the wilderness of the Australian music scene, Boste finally resolved to record a solo album of her own. There were a couple of songs that had survived the tyranny of years, and a good 10 or more yet to be written.

With an ever growing sense of urgency, Boste managed to pull together the necessary material to record Home Truths, a deeply moving and evocative effort. Her hauntingly rich vocals blend beautifully with the chillingly atmospheric dobro/guitar playing of Kerryn Tolhurst, and the driving rhythm section of Andy Swan and Stuart Speed. Driven by a deep southern sound, these songs are a collection of stories from days gone by. At times a cathartic expression of experience, and expectations dashed. A difficult album to write, nonetheless a brave and honest recording that gets to the heart of matters, warts and all.

A deep and thought provoking work that deserves all the attention it currently enjoys. Very much worth a listen...
