Erika Wester — Home

Ah, yes, the three phases of love. When a glance turns from coquettish to baneful. When a person’s partner’s true flaws are revealed. And when you find a person who you realize you ought to keep around after all.

Erika Wester gets to the heart of all of these in her EP Home. Wester strikes a beautiful balance between sincere folk and pop music catchiness. Her soaring voice and tastefully minimal arrangements certainly help her cause. Home is brief, but captures Wester’s wide range of songwriting abilities. It’s a calling card for what’s sure to be an impressive debut album — so you might as well get on board now.
