Pretty disappointed in the sophomore record from Katie Pruitt. While her debut, "Expectations," showcased simple yet heartfelt country singer/songwriter ballads, it was her remarkable and vibrant vocal prowess, coupled with a deep and introspective exploration of her Catholic upbringing within the LGBTQ+ community, that truly captivated listeners. However, "Mantras" seems to fall short of expectations, presenting a more rudimentary approach to country singer/songwriter music without the explosive and intense vocal performances anticipated. Though the album does offer some decent ideas, it lacks the same excitement and depth found in "Expectations."
