Peabody - Heroine

Peabody – Heroine
1996
4 Stars

Peabody returned in 1996 with a bigger rock sound. This did not hurt the New Orleans based band one bit. The entire band stepped up and gave us a band that evolved from the soft spoken band that recorded Lost In Old Rivers to an energy laden force to be reckoned with. Karen Protti’s voice although sounding bigger is just as beautiful and seductive as she has always been. With Steven Dennis playing more rockin’ guitars the drums by Chris Bailey and bass by Jimmy Legnon stepped up and made this album sound huge and wonderful. Throw in some strings and brass and this is an album not to be missed.

Tell Him, Wouldn’t You, Heroine, Where’s The Time? and Two Reason’s Why are great starting point’s but this entire album is not to be missed. A band that should have been able stand next to the Cranberries in rock n’ roll history is our little New Orleans secret . . . spread the word its never too late.
