Cardiff-based indie folk multi-instrumentalist Novo Amor presents the striking and scenic “From Gold”, premiering today on Best Fit.
-The track begins with fragile intensity and skittering guitar: a small, lovely, locket-sized melody wedded to Ali Lacey’s falsetto. Over its duration, the song swells into a panoramic soundscape that engulfs the listener. Bon Iver fans, take note.
The video by Josh Bennett is composed almost entirely of close-up shots of Lacey pacing through a misty landscape, culminating in a final scene as beautiful as it is unsettling.
“From Gold” is taken from Novo Amor’s new EP Woodgate, NY out on 31 March via Brilliance Records.
