South

Heather Nova

Polished, sun-drenched alternative pop that trades jagged edges for oceanic warmth. Shimmering guitars and siren-call vocals recorded in the glow of the new millennium.

September 19, 2001 · David Gresham Records

A luminous and hopeful embrace of love and nature, balanced by a sophisticated pop-rock edge.

Moments Worth Listening For
The breathy, ascending vocal hook in the chorus of If I Saw You in a Movie that mimics the flutter of a heartbeat.
The dark, brooding cello lines that anchor the otherwise shimmering pop structure of Virus of the Mind.
The transition into the expansive, aquatic bridge of Just Been Born where the arrangement mimics a rising tide.
