It's forever welcome when someone easy on the eyes gives me something easy on the ears. A singer songwriter with a temperamentally crisp voice, Kesang has been perfecting her art for the past decade. The album retains minimalist composition throughout, finding a delicate and harmonious balance between a sound both raw and produced. A tickling piano here, a soft brush tap there, but mostly just Kesang's voice in perpetual dialogue with her soft-spoken guitar and lyrics that stay true to experience and sacrifice nothing to the temptations of traditional radio-friendly songwriting. If you need a further rec, I thoroughly enjoy The Choir Sighed.
