Unlike most folk singer-songwriters Autumn Boukadakis main instrument is not the acoustic guitar. She prefers the piano and it show in her songs that are more melodic than rhytmic. Her second album Velvet Sky was recorded in Nashville, but thankfully none of the current "cleaning things up" style of that city ended up on the album.
Autumn wrote seven of the songs for this album, most of the other songs including the title track, were composed by Walt Wilkins (who co-produced with Tim Lorsch). She can make a song her won, even getting away with a classic like Patty Griffin’s Nobody's Crying. She is getting ready for the next step, receiving more airplay every day in her native Texas. Coming up with all the songs for her next album one might be a good idea.
