A stirring display in songwriting from Kathleen Russo, “Dance of Redemption” struts a charismatic array of piano, brass, and rhythms — resulting in a triumphant-sounding success. The glistening, vibrant release continues the artist’s return from a 20-year hiatus, with technology aiding Russo in crafting this new batch of songs. The NYC music scene veteran succeeds with a melodic, aptly danceable sound on “Dance of Redemption.”
The genre-defying songwriter engages with an eclectic pop blend on “Dance of Redemption,” moving with a peppy piano-fronted exuberance into brass-y shimmering. A steady rhythm section persists throughout, simmering as a bright organ hits approaching the two-minute turn. A climactic fervency shows throughout, with the brisk culmination of instruments resulting in a satiating finale. We’re excited to keep tuned into Russo’s return.
