Guide Review - Jillbilly - Jill King
It's always nice to find a singer who can embrace the traditional sounds of country music, the hillbilly sound of the backwoods Appalachians, the simple quality that makes country music COUNTRY, while at the same time presenting it with a fresh, contemporary sound.Jill King has all of that wrapped up with a beautiful voice all her own. This Alabama native knows how to belt out a real country song.
She knows how country music should sound, & she has a voice that is as real as it gets. It's pure and beautiful whether singing the dance songs or the lovely ballads. It's nice to hear the "real deal" in a package suitable for "mainstream." The two shouldn't be mutually exclusive. Jill King has it all.
