JESCA HOOP

Kismet

2007-09-24

"Jesca Hoop's music is like a four sided coin. She is an old soul, like a black pearl, a good witch or a red moon. Her music is like going swimming in a lake at night." — Tom Waits Half-rock and half-folk, Hoop’s debut album is a disorienting trip through her mind. The release shifts speeds as it pleases, with no warning for the listener. Her enchanting accent draws attention away from her at times nonsensical lyrics, but the album is musically pleasing throughout. – Ben Cook the Intern
