Candlepower

Description

A voice for our time, half Joni Mitchell, half Laura Nyro. A collection of hauntingly beautiful songs reminiscent of Karen Carpenter and Fiona Apple, with a touch of Kate Bush. The stuff of legend for a voice that surfs many musical tangents, soars and lingers, stings with honesty; transforming from the sweet reverence of Karen Carpenter to the soulful growl of Laura Nyro, passing through possessed phases like Dada, before plunging into Joni Mitchell’s most jazzy melodies or harmonies akin to the late Roches when they merged with Robert Fripp. Candlepower is a juxtaposition of melodies, a collection of profoundly beautiful songs with a captivating resonance about everyday life and the world around us, in all its banality.
