Char Butler: Place Your Burdens
Place Your Burdens / Listen: / Download
Place Your Burdens has an engaging swing feel to the song as Char plays acoustic guitar and sings with daughter Amber. Amber reveals her true talent as she sings on the interlude after the third verse. “Deeper, richer, stronger are qualities that resonate through Char Butler’s new CD Sleepers Awake. This, Char’s second CD, is a mother-daughter collaboration that is worth more than a casual listen. Daughter Amber’s clear high notes drizzle sweetly over Char’s rich tones and melancholy lyrics. Their intricate and complex harmonies are nothing short of miraculous and create a soul-searching, sky-reaching blend that is as satisfyingly grounded as it is inspirational. Char and Amber sing some awe-inspiring notes that are matched by the haunting beauty of the penny whistle as it whispers through the tunes. Be prepared for some goose bump, moist-eyed moments as Char’s lyrical bliss takes your soul on a musical journey.” Joanne Quinn, Phd
