Daneshevskaya — Long Is the Tunnel (Winspear)

Photo by Lily Frances

Daneshevskaya’s Anna Beckerman bolsters fragile art songs with big, resounding arrangements, her voice like a flower nudging up out of a whirlwind. Her last EP Bury Your Horses found drama in lush runs of piano. This time, in opening cut “Big Bird,” a massive wall of guitar rises up behind her musings about outsized feathered creatures.

It’s a nice bit of rock and roll energy in an art that often seems a little precious. Elsewhere Daneshevskaya croons and swoons against tea-dance orchestra sounds strings and piano (played by frequent collaborator Maddy Leshner). “Bougainvillea,” which Beckerman and Leshner co-wrote, drips glamour like a sequin-gowned chanteuse, improbably lavish around the sweet, pure, quiet intimations of the singer.

These songs waver between centuries and styles, shifting as you listen from Weimar cabaret nostalgia to modern baroque pop. “Ice Pigeon,” has a fey, antique lilt to it at the get go, its piano figures curving like flowers pressed between pages. But then the drums kick in, and it arrives, thumping, in the 21st century, though not exactly unambiguous about it.

The exotic-ness is part of the charm, clearly, but on the last cut “Somewhere in the Middle,” Beckerman pushes it aside. The track starts with straight indie guitar strumming and a bounding, pushing bass line. Here Beckerman’s lucid soprano sounds less mannered and more modern. She’s a hot house orchid elsewhere but more of a daisy here.

Beckerman spent some time touring with Black Country, New Road this year, and that band’s Lewis Evans drops by to add some sax to “Bougainvillea” and “Somewhere in the Middle.” It’s hard to imagine this band’s soft, fanciful tunes up against that sharper clatter, but here, by themselves, they blossom beautifully.
