Shadow Gazing Reviewed In Wave
Eva Abraham's debut on Big Chill Chill Recordings 'Shadow Gazing' has just been reviewed in Wave. Sounds like they liked it...Somehow singer-songwriter Eva Abraham was once signed to none-more-hip electroclash label City Rockers. Which is weird, since Eva's evocative voice and plaintive guitar strums don't sound like they'd be much improved by a bangin' electro remix. The cosy environs of Big Chill Recordings seem a much more natural home for her talents. This debut album is a fair approximation of her stunning live performances. Intimate, and powerful, Eva's husky voice takes the listener on a bluesy journey through the full range of late-night emotions. Portishead's Niven Garland is the producer and bolsters the raw sound with moody strings and eerie instrumentation. Both tough and vulnerable, this is ideal late-night listening with a bottle of red and a sympathetic (or animal) within hugging distance.
