Seeking: Review
Style: Dream-Pop
Nashville-based artist Arily Michele describes herself as dream-pop, and that certainly makes sense given the other-worldly, mildly trippy, and defiantly chilled-out atmosphere that she creates on a song as accomplished as “Komorebi.” But there’s a lot more going on here too. There’s a Kate Bush-esque, new-wave singer-songwriter quality, an art-rock edge, that is entirely welcome on a song like “Silver Dollar.” Michele’s vocals are gorgeous; softly expressive in the main, they soar when necessary, hitting rare heights on occasion. After listening to everything that she submitted,we’re keen to hear what Michele has in store next.
