It’s been said before, but it’s worth saying again: those who think Shawn Mullins’ discography starts and stops with his 1998 chart-topper, "Lullaby," are missing out on one of Atlanta’s better Americana artists. Now in his early forties, Mullins has developed the sort of weary, lived-in baritone that suits his music, and he tailors his folk songs to an adult contemporary audience. As a result, Light You Up bridges the gap between "†Lullaby,†" with its easygoing acoustic ambiance and PG-rated charm, and 9th Ward Pickin' Parlor, the roots rock album that reignited Mullins’ career in 2006. The songs shine their brightest whenever he digs deep into his Southern heritage.
