Laura Gibson – La Grande
Rhythmically trotting percussion leads up to the stirring, reflective folk tinged vocals of Oregonian Laura Gibson, ‘La Grande’. Mysticism and hope meet like strangers at a saloon to give this mildly morose epic a bit of spice.
Western spiked poetic lyricism complements the ambient, pop and folk conjoining instrumental approach. Gibson ends 2011 with promise that the release of the same titled album in January, could mean that 2013, or at least the start of it, is a period of meditative musical and poetic reflection.
