Elea Calvet’s title to the song “Sinuous Ways” suggests in its very language the way life can be like walking a tightrope in navigating tensions and precarious situations. Also the imagery of the lyrics highlights the interconnections of the various aspects of our lives and how it’s held together like the connective tissues of living. The music cast in strings, piano and Calvet’s near whispered vocals like a jazz singer who maybe took in a little influence from Edith Piaf’s cadence and Jarvis Cocker’s phrasing conveys a mood like a late night cabaret act performing in a darkened club in Paris or Berlin. The words can at times seem to describe obliquely a complicated relationship but one that is more like coming to terms with that relationship with oneself and grappling with one’s own existential angst.
