One imagines Laura Carbone doing slow turns in a desert landscape at sunset listening to “Horses.” Her more crisp vocals give way to ethereal, wordless singing like she’s matching the wind and contemplating the personal fortitude one must muster to stand up for oneself and envisioning how wild horses running free seem unconcerned with the unconcerned with arbitrary and internalized limits to their freedom. The melodies are pastoral and textural, unfurling slow and at their seeming leisure and yet they pull you into Carbone’s creative vision and ability to turn melancholic feelings into something more vivifying.
