Shivaree: “I Close My Eyes” (2005)
Listening to Shivaree is like looking through a prism of musical facets and moods. The torch song sensibilities are overlaid with Cowboy Junkies alt country leanings. It’s dark. It’s creepy. It’s coffeehouse vibe. It’s smokey late-night last call. It’s jagged with reverb and Tom Waits cacophonous clash. It’s smooth with a sultry R&B feel. Wait, was that a banjo?
Pulling it all together into an appealing blend is the voice of Ambrosia Parsley, she of the Wednesday Addams besuited cover photo, whose interesting past is explored in the post linked below.
Shivaree disbanded in 2007 after four full-length albums, 2 EPs and various singles.
