Zyrah's Orange: Body

Note: this was a review I did a few years ago. I've learned a lot since then, but I like to giggle. Plus, it was posted on our site.

One bit of advice to someone listening to the latest from Zyrah's Orange: play it again. More modern rock and groove than trip/jazz, Body is one of those albums that you may not realize you're falling in love with until it's too late. Featuring uncommon but hip vocals, some fantastic guitar solos, and a jovial attitude, this is one snappy album. From the opening track -- an upbeat, danceable tune appropriately named "Best Day" -- to the second-to-last track -- a slightly more serious, Hendrix-guitar-from-"Little wing" sounding song titled "Taken" -- Zyrah's Orange keeps you, the listener, interested. The last track, "More Best Day," features Z.O. doing an improvised take on the album's opening song. Another nugget of advice to the new Z.O. listener: Buy Body if you're looking for something new, hip, and fun.
