CD. Zustand: Good. Lady A prefaced the release of Need You Now by issuing its title track as a s ingle; it reached the top spot on the country charts and stayed there for five s traight weeks. It was their second number one, and they wasted no time following it with American Honey, which appeared a mere two months before this set was in stores. This singing/songwriting trio -- lead vocalists Charles Kelly and Hil lary Scott, with multi-instrumentalist and backing vocalist Dave Haywood -- unde rstand how Nashville works, and they know how to work it. On their sophomore eff ort, they stick very close to the formula of their debut: a slew of mid- and upt empo love songs, a sad ballad, and a couple of rocked-up good-time tunes, all se lf-written with some help from some of Nashville's most respected writers. Kelly 's baritone is emotive, expressive, and deep in the pocket, no matter what he's singing. He shines on the soft rocking Love This Pain, which could have been a single. Scott's voice is a little less distinctive, but she does possess a uniq ue form of phrasing and reaches deeply into her protagonist's personal situation s, whether it's the celebratory good-time girl in American Honey or the wildly -in-love mature woman on Hold on Tight. The group party anthem on the set -- a n obligatory addition these days -- is Stars Tonight, which contains more than a few cliches, but has a killer guitar riff and an infectious chorus. With co-p roduction from Paul Worley, Lady A prove there is no sophomore slump on Need You Now. Here, the band's seamless, polished, and savvy brand of contemporary count ry is even more consistent than it was on their debut; it's virtually flawless i n its songwriting, production, and performance. ~ Thom Jurek.…
