Eagerly awaited, this is Simone White's second album for Honest Jon's, after the acclaimed release two years ago of I Am The Man. Likewise produced by Mark Nevers in Nashville,Yakiimo has a more pared-down, western sound. The mood is bitter-sweet and nostalgic, but spiced with longing, fantasy and hopefulness, musing in a daze (sometimes child-like) on lost love, lost innocence, lost years. Marked by high and lonesome fiddle and some lovely guitar-picking, the spare arrangements find in Americana an equivalent of the world of saudade expressed in Brazilian Portuguese music. Strikingly centre-stage are Simone's beautiful voice, and the magnificent song-writing, with four new originals by her friends Frank Bango and Richy Vesecky, and seven by Simone herself.
