Album Review: Davey Craddock - City West

It's been a long time coming but West Australian Davey Craddock has finally released his debut album and it's as equally as impressive as the string of singles he's released over the last few years.

Sitting in the realm of soulful Americana music, City West is a beautifully recorded collection of songs that evoke emotional and geographical landscapes. These are songs with universal themes and a sweeping, panoramic Australian feel to them. Craddock's voice is the killer blow, harnessing sweet tones, a dramatic bluesy huskiness and the swing and sway of soul music. City West is a world class introduction to one of this country's finest singer-songwriters.
