Denver – Corinne West has been hailed for her “voice of gold” by Relix magazine, and called “A Siren of the Sierras” by Times-Herald. A finalist at the 2005 Kerrville New Folk songwriting competition, Corinne comes to Swallow Hill on Friday, November 24 at 8 p.m. to perform songs from her critically acclaimed debut CD Bound For The Living.

Corinne West's voice has been praised as “utterly spell-binding,” “radiant,” and “extraordinarily beautiful” by critics across the globe. “Corinne's sweet singing captures the heart of country.” Maverick magazine praises her voice as “Part velvet, part grit, Corinne’s voice has a quality to it that is both achingly penetrating and highly addictive” and continues to praise Corinne’s music as “cool, layered sound and is utterly spell–binding. Even more impressive than Corinne’s obvious talent as a singer and performer is her genius as a songwriter and lyricist.” Her songwriting weaves its golden thread through roots music from country to Americana, bluegrass, western and folk. “...I'd have to call it bluegrass, but that's like calling Picasso a painter. This lady has a voice that simply soars ... you can't go wrong with this one. 5 STARS!!”– Don Grant, Freight Train Boogie.
