The Story (2007) is noted for its dramatic title track and consistent songwriting. Bear Creek (2012) is described as a balanced, radio-friendly country/folk record with gospel and bluegrass touches. Reviewers highlight simplicity, strong melodies and a versatile vocal delivery.

For:Listeners of folk, country, Americana and singer-songwriter music; fans of strong vocal-led songwriting.

 “The Story,” by the way, is a beautiful rock track where Carlile's beautiful voice first weaves sweet melodies—light guitar chords—and then bursts into an angry crescendo—choirs and agitated rhythm.
