Debut album from young Welsh/Bajan singer/songwriter/musician Kizzy Crawford, this really pleasing eleven track offering blends soul, jazz and folk touches with a sophistication that belies her tender age. The infectious ‘Real Love’ is an uplifting groover, the title track ‘The Way I Dream’ is a more stripped back jazzy number while the boogie swagger of ‘Twenty Years’ has that Tom Misch kind of swing. The spacey ‘Progression’ is a more mid tempo effort that allows her assured voice to shine, the dreamy, laid back ‘Dive’ reminds of Norma Jones or Nerina Pallot while ‘Adlewyrchu Arnuf I’ is an expansive cosmic soul-jazz journey that finds her in top form. ‘Waiting Game’ has a driving rhythm that showcases the tight, on pint band that works so well with her voice. Really good debut.
