Come Find Me

Don’t mistake the title of Audrey Auld’s Come Find Me as any kind of shy retreat. Call it what she does: an “invitation.” “Come find me, come find me, I want to be found,” she offers on the album’s winsome opening waltz, then seals the deal with an offer hard to refuse: “You’re welcome to glorious me.”

She sings it sweetly, but with a flirty flash of unmistakable, cocky cheek — almost a dare, really, as befits a fiercely independent artist who’s been self-releasing albums for more than a decade now under the tell-all banner of “Reckless Records.” Simply put, Audrey Auld does not do coy. Songwriter’s songwriter Fred Eaglesmith calls the native Tasmanian “one of the most honest original artists I know,” and, true to form, Auld is candidly forthright in her pride over Come Find Me, her fifth full-length solo album and ninth release over all. “I’m really keen to show it off,” she enthuses.

From the 5-star review in the UK’s Country Music People magazine: “Audrey Auld is an amazing talent. Like a special flower in your garden. Her songs are a kind of beacon of hope, from a woman who cares, in this deeply cynical world we are all stranded in. You need to relax more, play this album.” ~ Paul Riley

"Sweet-voiced but tart-tongued and no-nonsense, Auld, from California and East Nashville by way of Australia, is a singer, songwriter and storyteller deluxe. She’s touring with a new CD, “Come Find Me." One of the best country singers anywhere, Auld is a troubadour who takes no guff while singing songs such as “You Wish” and “Nails,” but she can be tender as well as “Beautiful Garden” proves, and “The Butterfly Effect” is about as good as a common sense anthem gets." ~ MySanAntonio.com, August 2011
