Spacious indie chamber pop with genuinely odd arrangements (i.e., French horn is featured, but not the most unusual element), anchored by Jessie Stein’s winningly fragile, slightly unsteady vocals. Reminds me, perhaps obliquely, of Colleen (Cécile Schott), if Colleen’s music were recast (just barely) as rock; Stein’s vocals make me think of Life Without Building’s Sue Tompkins, minus the giddiness and dizzy syllabic velocity (I guess that leaves a certain exploratory quality). Rewards attention and repeated listens; special, striking, recommended.
There’s a nice interview with Stein at in your speakers.
