Morgan Wade - Reckless [LP]

Produced by Sadler Vaden-Jason Isbell's longtime guitarist and an acclaimed solo artist in his own right-Wade's full-length debut Reckless is a confident rock-and-roll record that introduces a young singer-songwriter who is embracing her strengths and quirks as she continues to ask questions about who she is-and who she wants to be. Her voice, a raspy soprano that can soothe liltingly or growl, is on brilliant display. "I feel like the last couple of years have been me trying to figure out where I fit in, who I fit in with, and what's going on," Wade says. "I'm almost four years sober, so a lot of the friends I had, I don't really hang out with anymore. When I wrote these songs, I was going through a lot, just trying to figure out who I am."
