Fallen专辑介绍
Lead single and album opener 'Fallen' swirls around a simple, softly strummed chord progression. A wistful vocal refrain echoes the six-string's sentiment. Each word is enunciated with a characteristic exaggeration, much like Amy Winehouse would. His backing band's entrance is subtle but builds to an emotional climax. The accompanying music video prominently features Vancouver's grey skies and driftwood-covered beaches. A couple with the best of intentions attempts to reconcile the differences between them. This song is the stuff of the last fifteen minutes of a rom-com where the girl realizes the one she was looking for was there all along. Slow motion run, possibly at an airport or in the middle of the street on a rainy night. I wouldn't be surprised to hear this song on a few of those soundtracks.
'In Need' is a similarly structured tune, Taberner swapping out the electric for an acoustic guitar. Somehow downtrodden and hopeful at the same time. 'Places' picks up the tempo a bit with a little light funk beat. Taberner shows that his falsetto is as strong as his regular delivery. A lifted Dr. Seuss line is re-appropriated for the chorus. A warm jazzy guitar line plays the tune out.
Gert Taberner's Fallen EP continues on in the tradition of the Pacific Northwest songwriters. Plain-spoken yet pensive. Calmed and humbled by the elements. A particular kind of soulful. Just the kind of thing you'd find stumbling into a tightly-packed, hip establishment on a wet winter night in Cascadia.
