#9 | Jessica Pratt | Quiet Signs
Mexican Summer/City Slang

According to Justin Chadwick: “These days, with so much surrounding us that can rightfully be classified as the antithesis of beauty, it’s particularly reassuring to know that unequivocally beautiful albums like Quiet Signs exist. Listening to it on repeat, as I’ve done frequently over the past few weeks, I’m deluded into thinking that everything is right with the world once again, if only for a fleeting moment until the record’s final notes drift away, coaxing me to revisit these sublime songs again and again and again. A terse yet utterly transcendent triumph of a third album that illuminates Ms. Pratt’s evolving songcraft, Quiet Signs, for all of its undeniable brilliance, rather remarkably augurs that her best may still be to come.”
