UNMOORED BY THE WIND
new images
Folk guitarist & songwriter records at home, taking inspiration from the fringes of LA's open space & natural land & on 'Unmoored by the Wind', kayla Cohen achieves new levels of clarity & expansiveness.
Where 2012’s Grace Riders on the Road reveled in homemade intimacy, Unmoored by the Wind opens to the world, reaching a timeless, near-baroque yearning; each of these 11 tracks burns with a unique vision. At once soft-spoken and virtuosic, Cohen’s mesmerizing fingerpicking lays gauzy groundwork for dazzling vocal work. This spacious set of songs flows seamlessly between wistful interludes à la Bob Desper & fully-fledged verses of powerful, often beguiling imagery.
