Tess Roby - Ballad 5 - 12" Clear Vinyl

Collaborating with her brother Eliot, Roby creates a singular, dreamlike feeling within her music. Utilising her eight years at the Canadian Children’s Opera Company, Roby’s dramatic vocals anchor a collection that shifts along with melodic guitar riffs, waves of ambient synths and sometimes strident rhythms, with Ballad 5 combining huge, gated drums with eerier electronica. She also has a keen grasp for developing mood, as the likes of Catalyst presents an emotional yet hazy gracefulness and Air Above Mirage presents a cosmic soundscape.
