Kara-Lis Coverdale, a Canadian sound artist, masterfully blends technology with personal and cultural narratives in her music. Her journey began with a church pipe organ, which she views as an original synthesizer, and extends through various instruments and creative practices. Her upcoming album, 'From Where You Came', showcases a softer side of her artistry filled with shimmering strings and peaceful synthesizer sounds, moving away from her previously complex and fractured compositions. The work reflects her belief that 'anything can have a voice'âa theme she profoundly explores in her music.
The pipe organ she played growing up in church is more than just shorthand for the holy; it's the original synthesizer, a tool for Coverdale to recreate voices.
Anything can have a voice. For me, voice is beyond human.
This studied attention to detail has led to a body of work where sounds are rich with complexity, their emotions uncertain and in between.
From Where You Came plays like a tribute to the myriad of influences that have shaped her artistic journey.
