Review

Chantal Kreviazuk's Under These Rocks and Stones is an impressive debut that suggests she could become a singer-songwriter of some power. Although portions of the album sound as if her producers (or label) were pushing her toward Alanis territory, Kreviazuk is at her best when the music is stripped back and simple. Occasionally, the whole thing is a little too precious for its own good, but the moments that work illustrate that Kreviazuk is a promising songwriter and musician. ~ Thom Owens, All Music Guide
