Nashville-based artist Onoleigh brings an interesting slant to her work. For example, on “Why Can’t We Dance” her naturally country voice delivers a country-sounding  song but with an electronic-pop treatment, along with some heavy-sounding rock guitar licks. And the song’s subject is impressive. It’s an anti-love song in which she proclaims to her suitor, “Make the rough edges round.  I just don’t wanna be in love!” Onoleigh gets melancholy and serious on “Tightrope” whose fiddle and twangy pedal-steel whine underscore a beautiful duet with a male singer. On the downtempo ballad “Walls,” she pays tribute to her surroundings with “You wrap yourself around me like a friend.” An artist to watch.
