Previewed below is the lead single and title track from UK singer/songwriter Lucy Cait’s debut EP for Folkroom Records. “Gabriel’s Wharf” is big, but big in terms of its weight and expansiveness. The “Gabriel’s Wharf”s background wash of delayed tremolo’d guitars create an interesting dynamic; while the guitars sounds both far off like their revolving out in some distant orbit; they feel ominous too, as if they could fall in and suffocate at the song at any moment. The effect makes for a compelling piece of cinema; that and the track is melodically excellent too. Give “Gabriel’s Wharf” your ears below.
