Vashti Bunyan - Heartleap (2014)

The third full length album from Vashti Bunyan and only the second album since her 2000's revival/return to music. This album sounds like a swan lost on a thin sheet of ice somewhere. Her voice is more restrained here than ever. This album eschews easy melody and structures moreso than the previous one. Everything is hung calmly on minimal harps with occasional flowering overtures of piano or violin, as if on ice that is about to break.
