Brooke Waggoner has years of classical training behind her and puts it to good use on her debut EP, 'A Fresh Pair Of Eyes'. Her piano-based pop songs are very creative and skilfully composed with swooping string arrangements and interesting musical flourishes. She's been impressing audiences in her hometown of Nashville with her dazzling live performances and I'm sure more people will be talking about her in the next year or two as her reputation grows (with inevitable comparisons to the likes of Tori Amos and Regina Spektor). It's great to see such a young and musically talented person turning their hand to pop music and I'll be interested to hear her debut album, whenever that arrives.
