​The Krickets (from the album If You Only Knew available as a self-release) (by Danny McCloskey)
The theme is love, and the emotion is the muse for every story on If You Only Knew, the recent release from The Krickets. Longing spells out the message sent over the raggedy rhythms of “Away from You” as “Your Light” shines on dark thoughts drawn towards its glow while the beat falls like water dripping down a window pane with “Rain”. The all-inclusive textures support the three-part harmony of The Krickets. The beauty of their combined voices wraps around the songs on If You Only Knew like fine cloth; delicate and graceful as they cover the words and music with color commentary.

Opening If You Only Knew with an thank you, The Krickets realize that love has always been within reach on “Right in Front of Me” as harmonic ooh’s float like mist around the confessions in “These Games”. A slow trudge supports the disclosures of the title track as bright strings satellite around the memories framing the pictures of a lifetime in “Holding On”. Coming together as solo artists supporting a breast cancer group that provides services to the uninsured, the three women (Rachel Grubb, Emily Stuckey Sellers, Lauren Spring) found common ground in causes and harmony. A tongue-in-cheek threat tells the story of “Just a Matter of Time” as a heartbeat defines the rhythm for “What Do You Know About Love” while the wisdom of experience shouts out a request for salvation with “Let Me Be”.
