LUCY ROLEFF - Left Open in a Room CD
With an eye on the contemporary but an affinity for the traditional, Melbourne folk artist Lucy Roleff returns with Left Open in a Room- a chamber-folk inflected expansion on the fingerpicked purity of her 2016 debut, This Paradise.
Autobiographical in essence but vast in theming, Left Open in a Roomreminds of both the simple, vignette songwriting of Sibylle Baier, and the intricate stylings and blunt tongue of Bridget St John and Nick Drake. Lucyâs vocals are truly the centrepiece, imbued with a precise, classical enunciation and soft duskiness. The peaks and valleys of her voice allowed to shine, as her rare contralto register shows all shades of its deep colour. We also welcome a new addition since This Paradise, Lucyâs 36-string celtic harp, alternating beautifully with her fingerpicked classical guitar.
The collection of songs here find Lucy looking inward, musing on domestic spaces and contemplating relationships past and present. Latent memories of an early, unresolved romance are reflected upon during âSometimes Doâ, details of a faltering household ruminate on âHe Heard Everythingâ, and finally an opportunity to step inside Lucyâs own space with titular track, âLeft Open in a Roomâ.
