Lucy Rose

Add Date: March 19

Artist: Lucy Rose

Album: No Words Left

Label: Arts & Crafts

Genre: Folk, indie

Comments: Lucy Rose wields her exquisite voice expertly, weaving layered harmonies over lyrics that are stunningly evocative yet comforting. She plays with tension and ease, dancing through varying moods and ideas very naturally. Strings alternatingly provide soothing accompaniment and spooky sounds that enhance the basic texture of voice, guitar, and piano. At its core, that's what this album most succeeds at: straddling and crossing lines of emotion. She's evocative and unafraid to sound a little weird, with simple but unexpected melodies and harmonies. She's delicate in touch but there's great strength behind the melancholy. Beautiful.
