ALELA DIANE – SINGLE REVIEW

Alela Diane – Moves Us Blind 

Alela Diane - Moves Us Blind

Release Date: Out Now

Portland’s Alela Diane has a warmth about her and a sense of the organic or natural that is utterly compelling. New single ‘Moves Us Blind’ has a soft piano riff at it’s heart that is embellished with forlorn guitars and reluctant drums which all serve as a bed of twigs and moss upon which to lay down the powerfully fragile voice of Alela Diane. Here we have a voice that is timeless applied to a melody and arrangement that could have come out of the Lennon or Mitchell song books and that marriage is as perfect as all those little moments that nature throws up – the smell of the sea on the breeze, light dappling through spring leaves or feel of grass between your toes.
