Susan Hickman - Hell Still Ain't Frozen Over
2010, Prickly Pear Records
Hickman returns with a classic style country heartbreaker in "Hell Still Ain't Frozen Over", the 2nd single off of her self-titled debut album. The song features a chorus that will stay with you, particularly on a cloudy day where melancholy hangs in the air like a mist. Hickman has one of those voices you want to just keep singing, eschewing flashy histrionics for a solid, emotive vocal performance. She's at her best right here. "Hell Still Ain't Frozen Over" bypasses the perky pop of Nashville's recent dark decade and sticks to the basics: solid melody, tight musicianship, and a vocalist who doesn't try to do too much.
