Description:
✹      Goners, the fifth album from acclaimed singer~songwriter and multi~instrumentalist Laura Gibson, is Gibson’s best, and also her strangest. There are hauntings and transformation, odd birds and harbingers. Women become wolves, men metamorphose into machines, ghost~children wave in the rearview mirror, a scar becomes a vessel for memory. Her lyrics are populated with sharp objects: a needle, a thistle, a sickle, a scythe, claws and animal teeth. „I wanted the songs to feel like fables, to unfold with dream logic.“ Goners is a record for thinkers and feelers, for the fierce and also the weary, and despite its darkness, Gibson has succeeded in making a work of radical hope.
Press:

✹      „Goners is so incessantly beautiful that one cannot help but want to gently crack it open to get to its beating core.“ — The FADER
✹      „A mini masterpiece.“ — American Songwriter
