Review

Roberta Lea’s Too Much of a Woman, out today, is one of the best albums of the year. Her debut full-length album makes an emphatic artistic statement: she stakes her claim to the wide-open spaces of country music and places herself within multiple intersecting musical traditions. It’s also a stunning piece of music, filled with memorable songs and linked by a loose but clear concept in which Lea tells the story of a woman who learns to embrace and celebrate her wholeness in spite of those (including herself) who would try to convince her otherwise.
