Big Thief
Since emerging onto the national scene with their 2016 debut <i>Masterpiece</i>, Brooklyn-based Big Thief has floored listeners with arresting songwriting and substantial risk-taking. Led by Adrienne Lenker (guitar/vocals), Big Thief crafts sparse, delicate songs that teem with both violence and vulnerability. Lenker’s breathy, measured vocals veer in unexpected directions, from the barely audible to near-operatic highs in the span of a single song. Big Thief’s modern torch songs, while undeniably haunting, are ultimately humane meditations on love and loss, imbued with humility and subtle humor. –– EM
