Lucy Michelle and the Velvet Lapelles have with their 4th studio album a work of art worth having and holding close to your heart. In more ways than one this body of music speaks volumes to the voracious longings of an isolated heart yearning to break out and beyond mere green pastures. You’ll get the feeling that it wasn’t the verdant fields of trifle and folly sought after, but the pursuit of a thing imagined in the half-light of desperation. The album Heat is aptly named for it contains words and music which create friction enough to set your heart ablaze. And though there are songs of a sweet forlorn nature they aren’t cloying or overly sentimental. My favorite is the softly flickering “Million Things” as it alights upon your earlobe and sends warm smoke to blanket your thoughts the whole night through. You can stream and purchase all 11-tracks at www.lapelles.com and listen to your hearts overfull. Peace.
