Sarah McLachlan Laws Of Illusion {Review}

Sarah McLachlan, the Grammy® award winning, multi-platinum singer/songwriter, released her new album Laws of Illusion on June 15th. This is her first album of new material in seven years! The album release also coincides with the return of Lilith Fair. I love Sarah McLachlan and was lucky enough to be chosen to preview the album. I have yet to hear a song from Sarah that I didn't like and this album does not disappoint. She has such a calming tone to her voice. This c.d. has really helped me to relax since having a new baby this month. The album’s first single is “Loving You Is Easy” and it is one of my favorites. To find out more about Sarah and Laws of Illusion check out her website. And for info about Lilith Fair go here.
Artists joining Sarah on the bill to include:
Colbie Caillat, Mary J. Blige, Sheryl Crow, Erykah Badu, Ke$ha, Norah Jones, Sugarland, Heart, Miranda Lambert, Beth Orton, Brandi Carlile, Cat Power, Chantel Kreviazuk, Corinne Bailey Rae, Emmylou Harris, Gossip, Indigo Girls, Ingrid Michaelson, Jill Scott, Loretta Lynn, Metric, Sara Bareilles, Tegan and Sara and more!
