Taste Test: Aviva Le Fey lets all expectations go with ‘Georgia’
The folk singer-songwriter learns hard lessons of a working musician’s life on a new song.
Welcome to Taste Test, a song/video review series of SubmitHub-only gemstones
Things aren’t as they seem, but they do work out the way they’re supposed to. That may not quite align with our expectations going into it, and yet, we open our arms wide for whatever life might have in store. Originally a Bay Area native, folk dreamweaver Aviva Le Fey is at the mercy of music’s relentless beckoning call. “Georgia” is wistfully-bound piano tune harkening to her early days of scattering her being as dandelion seeds into the setting sun, and she soon learns hard lessons that she couldn’t have possibly understood otherwise. “I’ve been singing so long / I got nothing,” she sings, as a cathartic upheaval of the truth of a working musician’s life that quickly alleviates her emotions that have since boiled over. “I’m just waiting on the moon / To let the tide in,” she later whispers. She both continues to be chained to her dreams and freed by them as she takes another step on the endlessly winding road.
“Georgia” leads into Le Fey’s debut album, Love Sick, expected later this year.
