From Indie Music Reviewer Magazine: Rich melodies, poetic lyrics and a velvety smooth voice join together to create one thing: beautiful and sunny music. Stacey Randol is a singer-songwriter who grew up listening to The Beatles with her dad and singing in church on Sundays. She also LOVES the beach. Randol takes her love for the beach and combines that with indie-folk melodies and what is produced is something magical. So grab a towel, get your umbrella drink, and watch your worries melt away with Stacey Randol. Steady Rhythm is the debut album by this Illinois born singer and songwriter. Now thriving in Nashville and creating her own brand of feel good music, Steady Rhythm features lovely tropical touches woven together seamlessly with indie-folk melodies. Drawing inspiration from the Beach Boys, Elvis (and more to be discussed a little later) she included instrumentation from flutes, strings and Saxophones to give the album this “tropical feel”. The use of these instruments also gives this album a multifaceted sound. Merging those with acoustic, electric guitars and drums brings it all home and makes it feel complete and natural. Every song on the album is memorable and catchy. After one listen you will be left feeling enchanted and re-energized. While listening there are a few things to watch out for: toe tapping, swaying, smiling and head bopping are inevitable so don’t say you haven’t been warned. There are so many elements that come together to make Steady Rhythm an amazing album. One thing that is so wonderful about Randol is she has an uncanny ability to put a fresh spin on tired clichés and make them sound new again. “Battled Feet” is a breezy tune that addresses those problems we girls can sometimes face. “Ya see my battled feet don’t make me cry. I’d rather have high heels than an idiot guy.” Randol’s lyrics are poetic yet still personal and charming. You won’t need a dictionary or degree to enjoy her message. Her vocals are warm and inviting, gentle yet hearty. Reminiscent of Feist meets Colbie Caillat, her voice will sound familiar and reassuring. Steady Rhythm is an eleven- song remedy guaranteed to bring some sunshine in your life. This is only the beginning of big things to come for Randol. I had the pleasure of asking Stacey some questions so we all could get better acquainted with this lovely lady and here is what she had to say.
