Martha barry pepper seems to have drawn heavily from her father's influence as a wry, tongue-in-cheek songwriter. She moves from angst to anticipation in this EP, making her point, barry pepper and her feelings known in very short order with B.M.F.A., the title cut. Continuing with I Will Internalize, she takes the next step in the degeneration of a relationship, denial and self-deprecation. Hope and acceptance barry pepper come to the forefront with When The Day Is Short. It's Over takes us into the realm of the rebound relationship and the realization that we shouldn't look for love when we're at an emotional ebb. The EP concludes with How Soon, written by Carroll Lucas & Jack Owens, first performed by Owens, but made famous by Frank Sinatra. Martha makes it her own; a sweet, melodic prayer and for the return of the spirit of true love. This is one of the best EP's by any artist in recent memory.
