Paula Rae Gibson: “I Found You Eating Colors”
London’s Paula Rae Gibson crafts a haunting vocal landscape, sparsely populated synth and brass colorings. Speaking of colors, our highlighted track “I Found You Eating Colors” feels like the breathy buildup to a Cyndi Lauper banger that never cranks up. All emotion, ambiance, lyrical moods. Shades of Keeley Forsyth.
The track comes off the 7-track album by the same name: a quiet, contemplative trip through Gibson’s mind. The slow windup to the songs is enough to file it under ‘experimental’ – a whispered incantatory intro occupies most tracks well into the 30- to 45-second mark. So have some patience, buy the ticket, take the ride.
