Thank you Tosh for pointing me to this, it is a rich find. Where did you get the subtitle (Sacred Bones)? It makes me think of the archetypal stage of feminine self discovery when deep roots and structures are uncovered. These can then be used to fully express the sense of life force and wisdom-to-come. There is an album by The Yeah Yeah Yeahs called 'Show Your Bones' in which the singer seems to become fully to womanhood. I listened to that again recently and I wonder if it wasn't Spellling who subtly suggested it?
Great review Tosh. I’ve listened “The Turning Wheel” several times over the last week; it’s quite the artist achievement. I really love the orchestration and the touches of electronica. As you described, I definitely hear the Kate Bush, Prince, Van Dyke Parks influences, but she seems to have bended them into her own wholly unique sound. Very enjoyable modern soul art music.
