Rachel Rhodes'
“Blue Boxes”
(Album Review)
I am a sucker for a concept album, so as I listened, this one just took hold and bid me to keep coming. What follows are more purely impressionistic thoughts on what I felt as the album unfolded.
Her album is very ethereal. So far, I have heard “Celeste” and “Cobalt.” Oh, and it JUST occurred to me that all the song titles are shades of the color blue! 😳🤷🏽♀️ How clever.
These songs are to be felt even beyond being listened to. They sound alone and in the dark and, frankly, blue.
