Artist- Lia ices
Album- Grown Unknown
Label- Jagjaguwar
This carefully-constructed album is delicately beautiful, carried by simple melodies and Lia Ices’ amazing, ghostly voice. “Daphne” begins with acoustic guitar and light straight arrangements before Bon Iver pops up half-way through to duet. Ethereal and poetic. I like the handclap backing on the title track “Grown Unknown” in particular. Definitely not for everyone, but this rises well about the usual singer-songwriter crap on the basis of Lia’s voice and the minimal arrangements.
