5 out of 5 stars carrie rules!.......2007-01-26

What can be said about Carrie Akre?Here is something-she is the best singer in rock!
Goodness should have been mega-stars,but such is life.
Carrie is still at it and she is singing better than ever.This album is beautiful from start to finish.
By all means, buy three!

5 out of 5 stars Inventive, interesting, moving.......2002-09-23

Funded by fans, an excellent album from and excellent artist. "Invitation" replaces the rawness shown on her solo-debut, "Home", with experience and diversity of a mature artist, showcasing not just her talent but also her skill. Like facets of a gem, each song highlights a differnt facet of her skills. From pensive (Invitation) to direct (Catch My Back), from gospel anthem (Not Yet) to lamenting (Hope), Carrie creates deeply unique and complex compositions, which rather than bowling you over invite you in.

5 out of 5 stars Amazing.......2002-08-22

Having lived in Seattle, most people would imagine that we are familiar with many of the artists that work and perform here, but Carrie Akre slipped by me all these years with Hammerbox and Goodness. No more.

"Invitation" is a moving document of gospel, blues and rock from an artist that deserves a wide audience. Her voice is tremendous, particularly on the title track and "Not Yet". There is not a single weak track on the release, and the recording simmers with an urgency and depth that I haven't heard on a solo record in quite some time.

Do not let this one slip by.
