Amanda Garrigues' Spirit Act is an accomplishment for independent spirits. Garrigues' performance on acoustic guitar is hilighted by David McMahon on bass, Eric Steinberg on electric guitar and Tom Hurst on drums. Garrigues' vocals and honest, and almost plaintive and guide the listener through the CD.
Spirit Act is a five song EP. The five songs are "Truth" about the end of a relationship. "Misunderstood" is about a mother's reassurance and seeking an ally in the world. "Your Country" is about loss. "Junkie" is about co-depency and includes the lyrics, "I don't think I could be your mother" describing the wish to do more. The CD ends with "Fiddler and The Girls" that has Garrigues on guitar with no backup. This song is a reflection of life seen when waking too early.
Garrigues' songs and lyrics speak plainly to the listener. They do not hide, or extend in volumes of solos by the other performers. In the end Spirit Act becomes a synergy of strings, and drum beat.
