Pour Me A Drink (Twirly Records, 2008) by Edwina Hayes Edwina Hayes' second album, Pour Me A Drink, finds her eschewing the highly produced sound of her debut release for a delightfully intimate, acoustic offering.

The gentle melancholy of Hayes' mellow folk-pop couldn't sound better. Songs like Run and I Won't Say Your Name positively ache with the weight of longing and sorrow, though Hayes' sublime vocals ensure that it's a bittersweet affair throughout, with the unerring comfort of her sweet tones Her third solo album Good Things Happen Over Coffee is due later in 2009.
