  • About this album: Consequences of the Crown marks Lynne's return to Nashville after a 25-year absence. It's a deeply personal and introspective album, blending soul, country, and folk influences. The album explores themes of heartbreak, loss, and the complexities of human relationships. For this one, think less folksy and more Fionna Apple-y. But that's not necessarily a bad thing.
  • Metacritic Score: NA. Album of the Year has it at 71.
  • Grammy Nominations: None.
  • Song To Sample: The soulful title track, "Consequences of the Crown."
  • Trivia Bonus: At the age of 17, Lynne tragically lost both of her parents when her father murdered her mother and then took his own life. Despite the tragedy, Lynne embarked on a music career early on. She is the younger sister of Allison Moorer (who appears on this album) and she grew up mostly in Jackson and Mobile Alabama, respectively. I saw her perform live, years ago, at an Art On The Rocks event at the Birmingham Museum of Art.
