Artist: Poema

Album: Sing It Now

Release Date: 3/23/10

Label: Tooth & Nail Records

When the pieces of the puzzle all fit, something very beautiful can be found, or heard in this case. Acoustic pop duo Poema, made up of sisters Elle and Shealeen Puckett, bring us their debut album aptly titled Sing It Now. Add in long time producer Aaron Sprinkle and what we have is an excellent introduction of what to expect from Poema. While not lyrically varying much from song to song, Poema has a constant theme of relationships throughout the album. However, the do get their sound across nicely, from the ranging sounds of the piano to the soaring strings. The rather refreshing vocals of Elle and Shealeen fit nicely as well.

The acoustic driven melodies of "2 AM" and the light hearted verses of "City Boy" are sure to stick. Songs like "Echo Off The Sky" and "Blue Sweater" take on a more flat up pop style, still keeping up with the relationship theme. Poema really seems to be going somewhere with their debut and certainly have the potential to become very big!

Rating: 8/10 Sing It Now is a solid debut for Poema, with a range of simple yet beautiful love ballads. Poema certainly has the skill and potential to become a big artist in our ever growing music industry.
