Steve Tibbetts 'Close' CD Review
Steve Tibbetts's new album, "Close", is a haunting, deeply intimate statement – a twilight meditation that feels like translating shadow into sound.
From the opening "We Begin" through to the closing lullabies, Tibbetts draws you into a world of layered guitars, loops, drones, and gently rumbling percussion.
Music is "as close to magic as we mortals have", admitting that musicians often feel like vessels but "we have no idea what we're doing.
One of the most striking features of this album is its emotional transparency.
Author's summary: Steve Tibbetts's "Close" is a haunting album.
