had already made good records and written great songs before she released her EP in 2013, but the five-song effort marked the point where she grew from a promising alt-country artist to a major singer/songwriter who was maturing past the boundaries of the genre. The unguarded emotional honesty of ' songs was nothing short of revelatory, and she displayed a striking intelligence absent of pretension as she struggled with her feelings of love and desire on "The Water" and "All I Know." And while her chops as a country singer were superb, on "Lover's Spat" and the title cut showed that she and her band could rock joyously hard when they wanted; it was a record that suggested had the talent and the courage to do just about anything she wanted, and she lived up to that promise on her subsequent albums and . Now that a larger audience has become aware of ' talent, has reissued in an expanded edition, with six tracks from non-LP singles filling it out to album length. Titled , the EP sounds just as great as it did in 2013, and the bonus tracks don't just fill up space, they add value to the package. "Mile High," "Come Over," and "Falling Out of Love" are three originals that mesh well with the themes and approach of the original release, and are every bit as smart and confident as her best work. The remaining three tracks are covers that demonstrate is one hell of an interpretive vocalist. Her version of 's "Blind" brings out a side not nearly as clear in the original, she dives into "I Would Die 4 U" with a passion that would no doubt admire, and the desire and remorse that are so vivid in her take on 's "Alison" make it one of the very best covers of that venerable tune. If you bought when it first came out, this edition offers you a worthwhile upgrade, and if you missed it before, is a great document of a singular artist hitting her stride. Either way, you won't be sorry if you pick this up. ~ Mark Deming
