Kate Bollinger - Look At It In The Light (Light Blue Marble Vinyl)
$18.99
Richmond, VA-based artist Kate Bollinger has signed to Ghostly International and releases a 6 track EP. Lead track "Yards / Gardens" finds Bollinger in full swing, skipping verses of uncertainty above a bright and nimble bassline and kick. Guitarist Chris Lewis weaves throughout, his riffs unravel across the bridge, trailing her lines like ellipses. Written with Trainum and Lewis, "Yards / Gardens" reflects "feeling resistant to change, during a time when it felt like everything was changing," says Bollinger. Growing up has become a motif in her work, but she's never sidestepped the concept in quite this way. Here, self-assured and surrounded by vivid production, she leans back in the grass, letting expectations breeze by, reminding herself she'll tend to things in good time.
