Terra Lopez, Sister Crayon, shows off her understanding for composition with her debut release, Loneliness is My Mother’s Gun. The songs are simple, yet complex and dynamic, with lyrics that are brutally heart wrenching. Sister Crayon’s vocals are executed with chilling desperation. Originally a solo act now a quartet, Sister Crayon’s album is out on Jeune Ete Records, a grassroots label that focuses strictly on the experience of investing in the artist and the product. Every album arrives with it’s own uniquely hand crafted assemblage, varying in presentation depending on the artist. In short you are purchasing much more than music, rather several pieces of original artwork. Sister Crayon’s, Loneliness is My Mother’s Gun, is a strict inspiration to the gloomy yearning introvert, or just one of those hum-filled rainy days. Out now, 22 class act tracks and one of a kind album art for 8$!
wow… this is amazing stuff. thanks for sharing.
found a few tracks on iTunes… any word on if she has a full album in the works?
Lullaby is fantastic. Hope to hear more soon.
I think they’re working on it, she’s got a new band behind her I think now, but still same myspace. check them out on youtube.
