​Sunny Gable (from the album Audience of One available as a self-release) (by Bryant Liggett)
Contrary to her album title, she is a musician worthy of having an audience of more than one. Sunny Gable, the multi-instrumentalist and vocalist behind the roots outfit Sunny and the Whiskey Machine, has wowed audiences around the Southwest with gutsy and soulful vocals, whether playing her Bluegrass tinged originals or covering from Aretha Franklin to The Talking Heads. The Sunny Gable solo debut, Audience of One, has Sunny backed by her Whisky Machine bandmates, dropping their Roots twang for a more traditional Folk approach with the vocals sturdy, smooth, and ever-present. 
“Rise” is a mournful and hopeful opener of optimistic promise. The story’s character showing that she’ll rise, she’ll fall ‘and the ground begins to crumble, almost every night’ but she’ll get up every time.   “How to Catch a Northern Star” is a sailor song, a tale of ‘129 strong and able men, enough rum and food to lift our mood when our patience is running thin’ that proves Sunny Gable can also spin a tale from out of history.  “Old ‘88” is a picturesque travel tune with a fun bounce while the title track is a lonely number with a even lonelier fiddle, Sunny Gable asking ‘why am I so damn good at letting everybody down?’. “Battle Cry” kicks off with a military drum beat that progresses into a marching tune while maintaining a slight groove. The closer in “Sweeter Than a Song (Finn’s Lullaby)” is a tearjerker nod to Gable’s ‘beacon in the fog’, her youngest child. 
Backed by her long-time bandmates, Sunny Gable has kept a Roots music configuration without making an overtly Roots record, her strong vocals gaining power when studio magic has Sunny Gable backing herself. (by Bryant Liggett)
