SPILL ALBUM REVIEW: RENÉE WAHL – CUT TO THE BONE

Renée Wahl

Renée Wahl
Cut To The Bone
Indpendent

Country-Americana singer-songwriter Renée Wahl gently brushes the sensitivity of her fans with her latest heart-opening album titled Cut to the Bone.

The Nashville-based artist unleashes the power of her feminine vocals in a beautiful assemblage of country tempos provided by her band, The Sworn Swords. In heart-to-heart songwriting, Renée Wahl reads through the pages of her personal diary to present an intimate window into her afflicted soul.

Though the instrumentals are not extraordinary, the simplicity and directness lend an authenticity to Wahl’s voice.

The first piece on the album, “To the Bone”, is the prototype of her artistic intent to strip away the musician and physics genius we know and present us with the real Renée Wahl. While achieving scientific accomplishments in the past, she is now opening up about her personal experiments with medications in the heartfelt “Meds”, and the distances of love in “From Here to There”. 

Cut to the Bone follows Renée Wahl’s intimate life journey, and in its sentimental significance proves that it is not all rocket science.
