Paulo Nico - Nico Paulo (Clear Orange Vinyl)

Fakta A debut album of effortless, grounding folk-pop from St. John’s-based Portuguese-Canadian artist Nico Paulo. Filled with concepts of time, water, flowers and family, Paulo’s songs have a way of lending heavy themes a buoyancy, her vocals feeling equally warm and direct. In the tradition of singers like Gal Costa, Nico, Feist or Victoria Legrand, Paulo packs profound strength into songs that spare no tenderness or nuance. Along with beautiful arrangements that pull out the finer details of the compositions, Paulo’s songs are captured here by the expert production team of Joshua Van Tassel and Tim Baker.
