Gordi Shows Us Strength and Fragility with ‘taken Blame’ [stream]

Gordi – Taken Blame SoundCloud

While it’s easy to lose yourself in the wealth of music popping up here in the US, this captivating new listen by Gordi, a young indie folk artist from Sydney, reminds us to pause and turn our eyes across the pond. Her recent debut “Taken Blame” disarms in its familiarity — the glittering synth that bubbles up over the percussion is betrayed by contemplative tone of the guitar.  The gentle hush of Gordi’s voice breathes an entrancing mixture of strength and fragility as she sings of the complex balance of letting go of someone that has already left. Keep an eye on her Soundcloud for more music.
