Customer Rating:      Summary: this girl is talented! Comment: her voice is very simple but she is able to manuever it in different ways that are very intriguing. her lyrics is among my favs in the style of telling a story or just plain speaking personally to you.
weak track? maybe handle with care.
awesome debut and if she keeps it up she will be big.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Wow. I never knew she could sing. Comment: I remember Jenny Lewis from my childhood watching her in Growing Pains, Wildcats, and the Wizard. After a google search, I saw that she was a singer now. I took a chance and was pleasantly surprised. Her music has a sureal yet jazzy quality to it.
Customer Rating:      Summary: As good as it gets! Comment: Jenny Lewis and the Watson Twins do an amazing job on this album. They create a unique and delightful blend of music that I find utterly absorbing. From the first note to the last, their sound is personal, powerful and substantial.
Too bad they are not doing music together anymore.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Great CD Comment: Loved this cd! Reminds me of modern day meets folk....enjoyed it and recommend it!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Very talented singer songwriter Comment: An understated, nearly flawless peice of work by a very talented singer-songwriter!!!!!!!!
The lyrics are captivating, funng and insightful. Nice balance between the personal and political.
Very cleverly titled "Rabbit Fur Coat"- To me this album is about the illusions of culture-- religion, politics, fame, money and love.
I find the production to be great as well--very balanced but minimal(in a good way). The Watson Twins also compliment her well.
She is sure one to watch and she deserves a lot of credit.
Keep up the good work Jenny!

Editorial Reviews:

Channeling the evocative storytelling of Laura Nyro and the soulful sexiness of Dusty Springfield, singer/songwriter Jenny Lewis skips all contemporary studio gimmickry to proffer a near-perfect solo debut. The front-woman for indie darlings Rilo Kiley breaks away from the songwriting democracy she shares with that band's co-leader Blake Sennett (also of the Elected), drawing inspiration from the crackling vinyl albums of her youth. And from the opening notes of "Run Devil Run," an acapella gospel hymn sung with the Watson Twins, through the note-for-note cover of the Traveling Wilbury's "Handle With Care" (with Bright Eyes' Conor Oberst and Death Cab For Cutie's Ben Gibbard), Lewis verifies this is her record. Her goose-bump voice can be as mournful as it is optimistic, but remains perpetually mesmerizing on Rabbit Fur Coat's best songs: the god-fearing country-rocker "The Charging Sky," the radio-poppy "You Are What You Love" and, especially, the title track, a haunting, solo-guitar waltz of poor meets rich. --Scott Holter
