Album Review: Lucy Roleff - This Paradise

Lucy Roleff brings a melting pot of emotions, introspections and stylistic embellishments to the table with This Paradise. 

Distinctly her own artist, she fits neatly into the folk genre along with a great number of peers, however she doesn't play the same game as them. Like Nick Drake or Joni Mitchell before her, Roleff has definitive ambitions for her music and she remains stoically faithful to them. She sings with a haunting, intimate voice — so close and quiet that you'd swear she was whispering in your ear.
