Jesse Sykes & The Sweet Hereafter - Like, Love, Lust & the Open Halls of the Soul (Barsuk) [audio] [upcoming shows]

Jesse Sykes has a beautiful yet haunting voice, like the lovechild of Craig Wedren and a ghost who grew up listening to The Flying Burrito Brothers. Each song on Like, Love, Lust... is surrealistic, dramatic and psychedelic. This will-o'-the-wisp floats her uniquely distinct voice over the modernly atmospheric country tunes in a curious way, allowing her to brashly flaunt lyrics that are often tender, softhearted and sincere. - cormac
