Ce qui se passe à Las Vegas, reste à Las Vegas. C’était du moins ce que croyait Harriet Gibson après avoir réussi à passer la bague au doigt à Luke Evans, le premier inconnu à croiser sa route. Elle avait juste besoin des papiers attestant son mariage pour toucher l’héritage de son père. Mais tout se complique quand, deux ans plus tard, son « mari » la retrouve et débarque sans prévenir dans le petit village où elle vit. Luke est têtu et exaspérant, et il a la ferme intention d’obtenir le divorce, mais Harriet ne tarde pas à se rendre compte que derrière son attitude provocatrice, il est drôle et sexy. …
Carrie Rodriguez is a Texan singer-songwriter and violinist whose repertoire includes country, folk and rock, but is at her best when she explores her Mexican roots. Her great aunt Eva Garza, a Spanish-language singing star in the 1940s, inspired Rodriguez to “create my own blend of Tex-Mex music”. It’s a mix of classic Mexican songs, many slow and unashamedly emotional, and her own compositions, which are often in the ranchera tradition. The opener, Perfidia, shows how well Rodriguez has succeeded. She revives this tuneful, well-worn song of betrayal with pained, attacking vocals, helped by strong harmony work by Raul Malo and glorious twanging guitar by the great Bill Frisell. Elsewhere, there’s a powerful treatment of the 30s love song Noche de Ronda. Rodriguez’s compositions have a dash of country-blues and include a tribute to the ranchera star Lola Beltrán. This is a fresh, confident set.
