3.5 out of 5 stars

With a flirty, humorous presence Chella and the Charm blend some midwestern rural vibes with urban hipster sensibilities on their latest self-titled album. The album is bursting at the seams with pedal steel whines and acoustic guitar melodies, supported by a simplistic rhythm section, all of which serves as a platform for Chella Negro’s towering vocals.

Despite the almost minimalist musical approach Negro and company put together a fun bouncy collection of tracks that at first glance might sound like they fit on a country radio station, but to those in the know fit much more perfectly on CPR’s OpenAir.
