Lady Dan - I Am The Prophet (Red Wine Spill on Clear Vinyl)

On her debut album I Am the Prophet, the Austin-based musician weaves intensely personal storytelling, poetic imagery, biblical allusion, immaculate arrangements, and crackling songwriting into an irresistible melancholic melange.- Dozier's vocal morphs from hushed, spoken word to bounding bursts of visceral angst. This is intensely personal songwriting, and every passing lyric reveals another layer in Dozier's narration, as they empathetically coax us into her world.- Sterogum : Musically, I Am The Prophet is a ruminative indie track with hints of arid country stylings. And each time Dozier hits the climactic reading of the title in the chorus, it's appropriately resounding.
