Sad few days because the Ducks lost…. Here is a sad song for all you Duck fans.
From her self-titled EP Nicole Miglis
Since so many of you loved that Hundred Waters song I posted the other day, I figure this will be another treat. It turns out that Hundred Waters’ lead singer Nicole Miglis has some solo work of her own, including a truly awesome six-song EP that released in mid-January.
What a voice! Her pace and precision, the harmonies and chord changes, are really something special, and in no small part what makes Hundred Waters so captivating. Her self-titled EP consists largely of sparsely-plotted soundscapes, of light guitar plucking and the occasional flute flutter, but Miglis paints them with such engrossingly vivid detail in her lyrics that you feel consumed when you really listen. This is the real deal– no hiding behind technology or crappy fidelity, no lazily mumbling of “lyrics”, no mishmash of influences, no name change or collagen injection. Just raw storytelling, emotional osmosis, and a massive, undeniable amount of talent.
