Another Great Track from Maura Weaver

Leave a comment

When we first encountered the new work of Maura Weaver for her forthcoming Strange Devotion LP, I marveled at her balance between folk elements and modern pop sounds. On her latest single, there’s a bit more of a retreat into the folk realm, but in doing so, her natural calm quiets the song’s waters, creating this rich, caramel dreaminess. The opening reminded me of early Cate le Bon, but as the track unfolded it was like stepping out of the cool AC into the Texas heat, blanketing me in this warmth that’s simply unavoidable. Strange Devotion is out on September 19th via Feel It Records.

The latest single from Maura Weaver is going to feel like somewhat of anomaly in the masses of the current indie climate; it’s got an opening that hits on dreamy bedroom pop, akin to various other acts, but then goes completely left turn and hits on on the alt rock vibes of the 90s. It’s a brilliant switch, catching the listener off-guard, and crafting just enough DIY aesthetic to pull the cool kids along into the delightful world of pop music. It makes sense that there’s nods to Liz Phair, as you can hear that sort of crossover magic, where folks from all walks of listening habits will pine over this new single. It’s all accomplished with a sincerity that feels like Maura is just writing on their own terms and finding what feels right; it all feels gloriously right, so Strange Devotion should be out on September 19th via Feel It Records.
