Come Away with Me is a mellow, acoustic pop album with soul and country overtones.It also incorporates blues, jazz, and folk styles. Bobby Dodd of All About Jazz writes that, although the album features jazz standards, jazz purists and academics “may deny [Jones] jazz credibility for her folk infusion”. Jones’ guitarist Jesse Harris and bassist Lee Alexander wrote most of the album’s songs, which feature simple melodies and progressions.
