The Singles Bar: Laney Lebo – Slow-Acting Poison

A dark river courses inside Laney Lebo’s new song “Slow-Acting Poison.” A throb penetrates the skull, as she considers being labeled a heretic for primal desire. Acoustic instruments wind and twist like a rose bush climbing a trellis. Roots find hearty soil and grow deeper into the subconscious. Meanwhile, Lebo cries out with a heart-rending performance about confusion, crucifixion, and cloying uncertainty. There’s no explaining things, sometimes, and that’s just the way of the world.
