Laura Gibson

La Grande

7.4 out of 10

La Grande pairs an expansive musical landscape with rugged, western imagery, but the sense of vastness saturating the album is best understood in counterpoint to the necessary limits of individual choice explored in the patient, assured songs Gibson pins thoughtfully to the night sky as the world spins on below.

Reminds us of: Mirah | Sarah Jaffe | William Blake’s Marriage of Heaven and Hell

Rating: 7.4
