Dead Gowns: “How Can I”
Not a solo strummer. But that’s what our highlighted track “How Can I” flashes at the start. Like maybe Dead Gowns gave us a quiet, folky album for falling asleep. Dreamy sure, but the sleeper must awaken. And she wakes up around the 2:00 mark when the full band comes in.
It’s fantastic when they do because the musician behind the moniker, Genevieve Beaudoin, surrounds herself with some beautiful players to complement her six-string and gripping wyrd folk vocals.
If you’ve had her debut EP How firmly planted in your car stereo for two years or so, like I have, you’re going to love the Dead Gowns’ debut LP, the extremely long-titled It's Summer, I Love You, and I'm Surrounded by Snow. There are only two songs streaming so far on Bandcamp, so you’ll have to take that on faith.
Stream, share, buy to your heart’s content.
