WITH MIDWESTERN WARMTH, MILWAUKEE’S VALERIE LIGHTHART DELIVERS HER TAKE ON FOLK POP, ADDING DEPTH WITH CLASSICAL AND ELECTRONIC ELEMENTS. ALTHOUGH UPBEAT, THERE IS SOMETHING UNDENIABLY DARK ON THE PERIMETER OF LIGHTHART’S LIVELY MELODIES, UNVEILING PRIVATE MOMENTS TINGED WITH THE MELANCHOLY OF INTIMATE VULNERABILITY. HER SINGLE, “I’LL BE DAMNED” IS FILLED WITH EQUAL PARTS FRUSTRATION AND TREPIDATION, ITS ANGSTY LYRICS SWATHED IN HEAVY BEATS, PEPPY ACOUSTIC GUITARS AND WHISTLING – IT’S A TRICK OF THE

“WITH SINGER ERIC SCHOEN’S IAN CURTIS-ON-UPPERS VOCAL DELIVERY AND VELVET UNDERGROUND-INSPIRED GUITAR FREAK-OUTS, THE BAND CAN SWITCH FROM SULKY TO SEXY IN A MATTER OF SECONDS, OFTEN BUILDING ON A SKELETAL GUITAR RIFF OR A REPEATED PHRASE TO CREATE A FEELING OF ANXIETY AND, EVENTUALLY, EUPHORIC RELEASE. THOUGH THE BAND CAN BE DARK AND GLOOMY—PERFECT ACID-RAINY-DAY MUSIC—IT IS NOT AFRAID TO PEPPER ITS SONGS WITH JITTERY HANDCLAPS OR SHOUT-ALONG CHORUSES.” ~ CMJ ON MAY 11, LOCAL POST-PUNK OUTFIT
