EXCLUSIVE NEW DOWNLOAD: Sara Lov - My Body Is My Cage (Arcade Fire Cover)
Just like her last name that is close to cute but sublimely imperfect, so is Sara Lov's parred-down, heart-on-my-sleeve acoustic version of Arcade Fire's love ballad, "My Body Is My Cage." Former Devic member, LA-based singer songwriter Sara Lov's voice drips of a bittersweet melancholy that one can't simulate just cause. It delicately channels a pathos that was probably birthed somewhere between her traumatic childhood (kidnapped by her father at a young age and taken to Israel for a decade) and assumed late night coffee house open mics years later, where sadness cathartically burst through in song. Imagine Silverlake's subtly coquettish solution to Mazzy Star or Aimee Mann; Lov's currently doing a residency at Spaceland- playing each Tuesday until the end of January.
Sounds like: Aimee Mann, Mazzy Star, Laura Marling
