The past two years in summary in bloggary

Here is the fossil news on which you totally missed the boat:


“As Snowblink, songbird Daniela Gesundheit makes hushed and eerily gorgeous music with a rotating cast of musicians, backup singers, and assorted whisperers. Gesundheit's voice is exquisite — a warbly, smoky, and delicate thing, somewhere between Jolie Holland and Cat Power. Her alias means "a white sky glow reflected from snowy fields," which aptly captures her sound, which is as crisp as a clear morning after a blizzard. "Ruby" is a showstopper.” --- Flavorpill SF

“Snowblink is a true pleasure. You can dance to this, but it should be a slowdance. With someone you care about, please.” —Shitparade, Los Angeles, CA

“In a brilliant partnering, Goldman is on the road with lovely lark Snowblink. If he is the torturous night, she is the first glimpse of fateful morning. Her gentle, revolving instrumentation is ripe with put-on-your-slippers optimism.” —Riverfront Times’ Critic’s Pick, St. Louis, MO
