Taste Test: Sabel meanders down ‘Mirth Drive’
The folk newcomer offers up hyper-charged reflection on change with a new song.
Welcome to Taste Test, a song/video review series of SubmitHub-only gemstones.
Change hits you squarely between the eyes. You’ll never see it coming, and the swift 1-2 sucker punch will rattle loose the pieces of your life into an unexpected cloudburst, scattered, vibrant and dusty. The uncertainty descends upon your shoulders, but you soon soak it all in for the new beginning it is. “I’m not the same girl anymore,” folk singer-songwriter Sabel peels back her monarch wings for a potently exuberant display. Sabel’s voice is as striking a match, the aroma fills the air and sends an electrifying pulse from being to being, and even as the arrangement swells with misty-eyed lushness (a choir of birds chirping in glorious unison), she is the central pin to keep it from floating too far into the cosmos. “I know that you’re doing fine,” she sings, not as a matter-of-fact statement but to convince herself that time really does heal everything.
“Mirth Drive” is another appetite-whetting drop of her debut EP, expected later this year.
