The delicate essence of a nu pop-rock with authoral vein, is the main theme of these songs in the new upcoming “I Already Love You”, by the ex-Devics singer Sara Lov.
Peace and sweetness wrapped in a box full of hypnotical and seductive sounds, that come from the artist’s past experience in dream-pop with his mate Dustin O’Halloran from 1998.
Sara mixes the soft and typical sounds from eterea world of Cocteau Twins, and in tis second solo album (after the 2009 “Seasoned Eyes Were Beaming” supported by Zac Rae – Fiona Apple, Macy Gray, Gnarls Barkley -), trie sto explain love a sit should be, filled with empathy and intimate dreamy suggestions, recreating, in that cover collection, from Black Heart Procession’s “Square Heart”, to Ron Sexsmith’s “Just My Heart Talking”, flying from country to dream-pop itself, also covering Patti Pravo’s “La Bambola” and Magnetic Fields’ “Papa Was A Rodeo” and the masterpiece “There Is A Light That Never Goes Out” from The Smiths.
Positive in creating and covering too, pointing out that kind of kindness, almost lost today.
Precious!
