Description
Poignant, dreamlike and beautiful and written following the sudden loss of her mother and brother, Oracles was Silveras way to transmute her grief into a cathartic work of art.
The result is a haunting yet life-affirming collection of songs whose lyrics explore loss, love, salvation and the journey towards acceptance, themes that are underscored by beguiling, weaving choral lines, mellifluous Debussian piano melodies, subtly off-kilter percussion and rapturous strings, all unified by Silveras dynamic vocal style which evokes the delicate yet theatrical prowess of Kate Bush, combined with what the Arts Desk described as a Björklike spontaneity.
LP pressed on 180gm vinyl.
