I knew that Jesse Sykes was essentially a folk singer, but I wasn’t prepared for just how dramatic and serious her songs are. Very involved imagery in the lyrics and a highly unusual singing style. It’s like her music belongs to a different age when people were seriously trying to change the world. Jesse Sykes is the Kate Bush of the indie-folk scene. Highlights fro me are “You Might Walk Away,” “How Will We Know,” and especially “Station Gray,” and “I Like The Sound.”
