About This:
Winner, Best Folk CD, 2004 Just Plain Folks Music Awards REVIEWS OF THIS CD: "Diane Zeigler has one of the clearest, most vividly gorgeous voices on the contemporary acoustic music scene. With Paintbrush, Zeigler makes a firm commitment to continuing her legacy of beautifully written tunes sung in that crystal clear voice. Paintbrush is a wonderful addition to Diane Zeigler's musical catalog. There's a song here for everyone who celebrates life and music created by one of New England's finest artists. And the sound of Zeigler's voice will linger long after the CD has ended. This is music to be played well into the summer night and beyond. It is something to be treasured." -The Music Matters "Diane Zeigler doesn't just write songs. She breathes life into them and then puts you right in the middle. You don't just listen to Diane's songs -- you experience them. " -Indie-Music.com READ MORE " Paintbrush' is an unassuming yet hugely impressive album, and should be on the list for all fans of acoustic singer/songwriters." Fish Records Catalog, U.K. "In the over-saturated world of singer-songwriters, Diane Zeigler is a diamond in the not-so-rough...she is one of the most promising voices in the new-folk movement. 'Paintbrush' provides yet another example of Zeigler’s expansive skill. A very impressive album. " -Ethan Covey, Seven Days "This is Zeigler's strongest work to date, and that's saying a lot." -Steve Netsky, Rounder Records "With the release of her third album, Paintbrush, the Vermont-based songstress shows that she's here to stay. Showcasing Zeigler's songwriting talents with eight original tunes, Paintbrush reveals her mastery of interpretation with unique renditions of the Dave Carter-penned "Gentle Soldier of My Soul" and the traditional tune "Wild Mountain Thyme". - Dirty Linen She might not be sizable in stature, but Montpelier's Diane Zeigler is a genuine giant among Vermont singer-songwriters. Her third album, released last month, is a striking collection of country-tinged torch and twang that features a full band sound behind Zeigler's powerfully crystalline voice. Decidedly upbeat and earthy, the album also offers some gentle laments as only she can deliver them." Burlington Free Press Best of 2002 List 'Paintbrush' is a heart-wise and musically vibrant new CD" - Scott Alarik, Boston Globe "This is a good example of how incredibly fine an independent project can be ... from the songwriting to the arranging to the recording to the artwork, this is an album Zeigler should be very proud of." -Walt Graham WSHU-FM (CT) "Diane Zeigler's 'Paintbrush' is simply beautiful music-making." - Times Argus
