Jo Davidson’s Kiss Me There is an album that may best be described by the disc’s first song, “Fragile Tough Girl.” Her songs and her lyrics demonstrate both a toughness and a delicate nature that is quite refreshing in its honesty and beauty.

Kiss Me There is by no means a classic, but in the glut of singer/songwriters, she manages to find her own voice.
