Fred Mills, Magnet Magazine (April/May 2000)
This exceedingly compelling slab of alt country is brooding and folky... Varagona is screaming to be discovered by the No Depression nation.
Linda Ray, Chicago Metromix
Between Lambchop shows backing songwriter Vic Chesnutt, and stints with Chicagoan Chris Mills and fellow Lambchop member Paul Burch, Varagona has struck the strongest chord with her own voice.
Album Description
Deanna Varagona has put in years as a member of Nashville's eclectic orchestra, Lambchop. Tangled Messages is Deannas debut solo album. Surrounded by many of her friends (including members of Neutral Milk Hotel, The Music Tapes, Lambchop, Pine Top Seven and more) Deanna creates a sparse yet dynamic backdrop to highlight her poetic lyrics. She lays her southern soul bare with a passion born in the Appalachian Mountains but bred in a world of a punk rock youth.
