LeBaron turned her sound into physical presence, lightened by hints of pop harmonies and jazz-like improvisation

"LeBaron’s I Am an American — My Government Will Reward You summoned ghosts while prodding us to think about today’s headlines. Using objects and extended techniques (the least of them plucking and strumming the strings), along with electronic processing, LeBaron turned her sound into physical presence, lightened by hints of pop harmonies and jazz-like improvisation. I Am an American… is above all what art cannot do without being: provocative and thoughtful."
