BUST album review: Shilpa Ray's Portrait of a Lady
Dynamic Brooklyn based singer-songwriter and musician, Shilpa Ray, returns with her fifth full length release Portrait Of A Lady. Written in the wake of the #metoo movement and the weathering years of the Trump administration - Ms. Ray is candidly revealing her views about these situtations and then some.
Ray has such a wide musical and vocal range from which she draws which always keeps the listener fully engaged. Ray’s singing can be in your face with an Iggy Pop, Patti Smith fervor, and then next invoke a softer, dark wave, more introspective tone. Both full on and one as heartfelt as the other. Lyrically Ray doesn’t mince words striking the balance between anger and humour. For example, on the album’s opener “Straight Man’s Dream” she sings “What a dream man.
ADVERTISEMENT With Portrait Of A Lady, Ray paints a portrait of an artist who’s very in touch with herself, the present world and knows how to translate that into a very relatable and enjoyable rockin’ musical experience. Tags: Shilpa Ray , rock music , album review , portrait of a lady
