TINA ANGOTTI
Mirror
Singer/songwriter Tina Angotti is more of a pop artist than a folk singer—a good thing in a field crowded with WGWGs (white girls with guitars). It helps that her big brother is Chicago pop genius Phil Angotti, who produced and plays on Mirror. Though Phil adds appropriately tasteful instrumentation as needed, the foundation is always Tina's supple voice and nimble guitar picking, allowing the spotlight to fall on unpretentious, melodic tunes like “Walk With Me,” “It's Alright” and “My Imagination.”
