Album Description
2008 album from the Dublin-born artist. fast becoming one of the finest vocalists currently emerging out of the UK roots music scene. Inspired by such Jazz greats as Billy Holiday, Dinah Washington, and the undisputed queen of Rockabilly, Wanda Jackson, Imelda is forging a contemporary sound all of her own. With a nod to the glory days of old but with her heart and soul very much in the present, this rockin' little minx belts them out with all the musical force of a veteran Rockabilly wildcat! 12 tracks.

Fantastic September 2, 2009

A great American roots music offering. Her voice accompanied by jaw dropping guitar solos and a fierce thumping bass made me get up and buy it after hearing it while in a local book store. From the cover you would be forgiven to think that this was just another Rockabilly album, but that is not the case. Whats included here is a mixture of Rock, Blues,R'n'B, Jazz, R'n'R, Rockabilly etc with many tracks being more a fusion of these styles then of just one particular musical genre. It is this that makes it fresh and original and not just another retro 50's album.

If you go to hear Imelda May perform live, she's not doing to have dancers on stage, or a head mic, and there won't be any lip synching. This is a real singer with soul, attitude, and a great band behind her. Do yourself a favor and buy this record - this is what music used to be like, back when talent, not just looks, made the difference. "Love Tattoo" is a superb record, and Imelda May deserves to be heard.
Have to see Imelda & her band live! March 6, 2010

Headed into a Jamie Cullum show, I wondered who the opening act would be. The first time I heard Imeda May & her unbelievable talented band would be the same night. Everything about her and the band was a delight. She used the work rockabilly for some of the songs and blues for the others. The best comment I could make is that one work cannot describe their style or talent. I am a causual listener of rocabilly & blues but Imelda makes it something completely her own. They were just an amazing live band to watch. Oh yeah - the CD is great too (picked it up at the concert).
great debut December 11, 2009

And Imelda and her band can pull it off live.
I saw them in NYC a month or so back.
Band is tight and she is a great singer and perfomer.
Fun, fun ! December 30, 2009
