Native State is an artistic triumph that eschews the artifice of commercial appeal for the sake of personal clarity.
The Austin native Jess Williamson’s particular strain of folk is at once earthy and gothic, often seeming haunted by some invisible, vaguely tortured presence. Her debut full-length Native State is only seven songs long, but it unfolds at an unhurried pace that makes it feel expansive.
Da inesperada mistura de country, folk e dreamy nasce a música de Jess Williamson. Grandes escaladas de banjo, teclas à la Beach House, variadade de estilos vocais (passando pelo quase falado até um canto alto e melódico) e letras que vêm de pura emoção compõem este álbum inovador. Native State é tranquilo, é espirituoso, e, principalmente, uma grande artista mostrando seu belo universo interior.
