Ethereal Beauty, July 28, 2006
This review is from: One Day You'll Dance for Me New York City (Audio CD)
This is one of the most beautiful albums I've ever heard. His voice fills the gaps in space -- Solitude -- with a richness that is both untouchable and comforting at the same time. His vulnerability is echoed in the piano on a lyrical journey -- It's Always Been You -- that makes you feel like you're eavesdropping on a very intimate self-discovery. Though their music couldn't be more different, Dybdahl has this depth of musical complexity that reminds me of the best of the late, great Chris Whitley. Both men sing about the things that make us feel the most -- the things that stay with us for our entire lives. NPR compared him with Jeff Buckley, but Buckley is much more delicate and fragile -- like he and his music might disappear at any time (and sadly, they did). There is a solidness to Thomas Dybdahl's music that offers introspective confidence. A Lovestory is my favorite -- the piano and guitar combined with the rich vibrato of his voice and magical lyrics ... well, i'll be listening to this one for a long, long time.
