------------------------------------------------------------
--------------
In this racing age of musical and technological overload it is easy to become de-sensitised to the healing and uplifting impact of simple melodies and life loving lyrics. Sometimes there is nothing easier or more effective than listening to a beautiful pure voice sing an easy song to make you feel better.Andi Fredrickson’s clear fresh vocals and pretty vibrato weave a valuable thread through these warm hearted innocent songs.Accompanied by Bawb Hill on guitar and Scott Fredrickson on drums and percussion, this subtle acoustic trio create an emotional, refreshing and original sound reminiscent of the best early sixties U.S. folk and acoustic songwriters. Their evolving and young repertoire also touches 40’s and 50’s chanson, jazz and swing styles, swoops through bossa nova, soul and beyond, landing somewhere in the much needed modern acoustic minimalist present tradition.This is a creatively young and evolving Kansas based acoustic trio who welcome your kind musical feedback.

---------- What a beautiful voice to sit down and relax with while doing some easy listening. Andi Fredrickson, the lead vocalist for Fredrickson Hill, really brings out the music on this CD. The CD opens up with an easy going tune called "Choices", meaning out of everything we have to choose from we are choosing God. The next tune "Just Knowing" also has an easy beat. It also has a hook that is hard to forget after giving the CD a listen. The CD then moves into an intimate tune called "Refuge" that gives a feeling of being alone with God while calling out to him. Fredrickson Hill has a meditative sound throughout the project and would be perfect for those days you just need to sit with God and be in the Word. I have heard Andi Live which really gives me a bias when it comes to her CD. Fredrickson Hill is fun to watch as much as they are to listen to.
