What do we have here then? We’ll
Johanna Glaza is an artist from Lithuania and her new single, ‘Space Mermaid’,
is not quite as Europop as you might think from the title. In fact, it’s not
Europop at all, no this is something quite different. The delicate and angular
piano notes are stitched together by Glaza’s vocal which, and I use this
reference lightly, is definitely in the same vein as Kate Bush. There are
elements of Anna Calvi, Regina Spektor and Tori Amos in the music and melodies
as well but what Glaza has in spades is a unique approach to constructing
sparse and spacious music that is at one moment bleak and then instantly
triumphant. The use of the piano to be both snowy and warm depending on the
chosen notes and rhythm is a rare talent but work that in to one song that
stops the clocks and stills the wind is hugely impressive.
