Gothen – Until They Sail

a0874255374_10

Some artists don’t wait to be discovered, they beat down the doors… demanding we pay them attention. Gothen is perhaps a reminder that the more rewarding listens are often found in music waiting patiently to be revealed.

The vision of Salt Lake City based Evan Blades Jolley, Until They Sail shows a deep awareness of the importance of space within orchestral sounds. Built around beautiful melancholy arrangements, his Fleet Foxian voice is like a beam of sunlight catching the dust in an empty room.

The truly remarkable self-titled debut album is available now.
