You might recall hearing about Meghan Pulles very recently, thanks to a collaborative EP with Eric Bay, described by us as “a hauntingly emotional and stirring piece of music”. Now, the American talent returns with the next chapter in her productive and stunning career. ‘father, oh father’ is Pulles’ latest effort, a charming journey through her emotionally-packed, ethereal artistic universe. What’s more, the single anticipates a larger record to be released later this year.
The planets seem to be aligning for Meghan – at least that’s our impression, seeing the sheer evocative nature of the single. ‘father, oh father’ is a nuanced and refined musical piece, which deserves to be listened to on its own time. Introduced by gooey and hypnotising electronic textures, the track soon welcomes Pulles’ solemn and epic vocals, boasting a strong celebratory and evocative quality, as if she was a priestess arriving on Earth to bless us all.
Lyrically, that’s where things get interesting. Both introspective yet of larger magnitude, the storytelling behind ‘father, oh father’ reveals a complex and intense picture, exploring the universality of god, and how -in our weakest moment – we often need something or someone to turn to.
