Tom Bacon is a very fine French horn player, and it is not everyday that someone blows jazz solos on the horn. Nevertheless, this short (45'35") album rarely rises much above the level of a novelty, perhaps due to the somewhat uninspiring material. If not for the horn, there is not much to distinguish this one from the pack. That being said, for those with a special interest in the French horn, this album should prove more than satisfactory. Bacon has a clean, crisp tone, and a fluid technique. His overdubbing on three tracks is gimmicky, but it still delights. Bacon is backed by various conglomerations, from the Rice University Jazz Band to a few different rhythm sections. The three arrangements by Art Gottschalk for the big band seem to work best, in part because they reflect a lighthearted approach. ~ Steven A. Loewy

Where the first (Vol. 1, Bed Time - also available at CDBaby!) was primarily dark, nocturnal ballads, most of these new songs were written on the baritone ukulele during afternoons in a hammock. So it seemed only natural to form a 'string quartet' - baritone uke (GL), violin (Charlie Burnham), guitar (Matt Munisteri) and bass (Greg Cohen) - and record most of the songs live in one afternoon and evening. Guest appearances from Marc Ribot, Todd Sickafoose and Kenny Wollesen, and some sparse piano and glass, round out the mix, and the result is a remarkably fresh-sounding collection of intimate pieces, some that rock the listener in a hammock of strings, some that whisper of the worm in the apple of paradise.Compared at different times to singers as diverse as Blossom Dearie and Annette Peacock, Leishman considers herself primarily a story-teller, and her writing is appropriately cinematic at times, conjuring moods of all colors and hues - from euphoric beginnings to bitter ends, and vice versa. In My Skin reveals another facet of her distinctive voice as a singer-songwriter.
