You can get a copy of this album here or an autographed copy at her website. And now, for a couple of quotes from a couple reviews of the CD followed by the bio...... “Her catchy melodies, diverse fusion of genres and colorful, wry lyrics are reason enough for DIY artist Thornley to stand out.” Paste “Thornley’s creations are wickedly infections in their slyness. ‘My Glass Eye’ may be the best songwriter’s album currently available on the market.” Larry Sakin, Blogcritics.org. "On My Glass Eye, Beth Thornley blends pop, alternative rock, and punk that really isn’t comparable to many other female solo artists out there." American Songwriter "Be it aggressive punk rock or a rich piano and cello ballad, the jerky rhythms of alt-rock or even a melancholy tango, Thornley feels at home." All Music Guide "So solid is the album as a whole that the excellent acoustic cover of "Eleanor Rigby" at disc’s end feels more like an encore than a highlight." Illinois Entertainer "If you like “smart pop” a la Aimee Mann, Sam Phillips or Brandi Carlile, you owe it to yourself to check out this CD." Keyboard Magazine Bio: Singer/songwriter Beth Thornley combines classic sounds of '70s rock with the earnestness of Death Cab for Cutie, Aimee Mann and Ben Folds for her own playful kind of sweetness. The Alabama-born Thornley recorded her first album, a critically acclaimed self-titled effort issued on her own Stiff Hips imprint, in 2003. "I Will Lie" was chosen as a rock category finalist in the 2003 USA Songwriting Competition and her song, “Done” was a finalist in the same category in 2005. Three years after her first album, Thornley returned with the confident, genre-blending My Glass Eye. Thornley's songs have been featured in episodes of The Hills, Life, Everwood, Laguna Beach, Scrubs and Friday Night Lights, while also appearing on The Perfect Man and Between soundtracks. On the strength of her album, “My Glass Eye”, Thornley has been featured in articles in national publications such as Paste, Keyboard and Electronic Musician. Thornley now lives in Los Angeles. You can hear her and her band at Hotel Café on June 12, 2009 in Los Angeles. Her next album is due July '09.
