Is it a dream or a diary entry? New Yorker Allegra Krieger’s work is a masterclass in the understated. Her songs are dripping softness and longing. In a world of devices and deadlines, it disarms. Just try listening through the track ‘Lingering’ without slipping into your own self-reflective sinkhole. Go on, we dare you. Allegra’s four studio albums are warm friends who drop in for tea with profound and comforting thoughts on the world from all angles. Through lovingly picked guitars and stream-of-consciousness lyrics, her places, feelings and human connections are ours to share too. Who knows what we might learn about this life.
