Brooklyn based producer and songwriter Eric Gabriel is somebody who’s distinctive and thoughtful appeal has seen him establish a revered sound that has allowed him to showcase a more intimate side of himself compared to his work in his band Meltand his new debut solo album Samara is the most fleshed out showcase of this to date.

The first track on the album comes in the form of ‘Your Name’, a track that has a delicate and thoughtful appeal to it throughout, accentuated by the fact that it was recorded almost entirely live to tape with minimal overdubs and no headphones or isolation, adding to its sense of honesty and rawness. This makes for a truly expressive and rousing feel to the track throughout, with an honesty and charm that rings through the lyrics and the heart that is poured into the vocal delivery, and it sets the scene for an album packed full of similarly thoughtful moments expertly.
