REVIEW:
On "Weightless", Tessa has found a voice of her own, with a style that could be compared to the pensive writings of Dylan, Damien Rice and Patty Griffin. Perry's music has been described critics on both sides of the Atlantic as "wistful," "candid," "sweet as gin," and "harshly subtle." The songs run the gamut from the simple acoustic melody of "Jumping Puddles" to the more forceful "One Chord Song" and "Baltimore" - what ultimately ties 'Weightless' together is Perry's insightful, deeply personal lyrics and the soulful warmth of her voice. She's all heart.
