Jessy Ribordy and Space Faeries.

I have always heard people talking about their favorite albums. It seems to me that their favorite changes from week to week. I do not understand. I, myself, have a few bands that I listen to that I know that if I buy their album, I will not be disappointed. Falling Up is one of these. There is just something about Jessy's ethereal voice that connects on a deeper level, and weaves in and out of the melodies and harmonies in a manner that is.. simply put, beautiful. When I listen to their music, I really listen. I unconsciously stop whatever I am doing and listen or sing. It's unstoppable.Listening to Falling Up is like entering a world of adventure, romance, nonsense, and space faeries, I would imagine. When I listen, I feel enveloped in a cloak of the night sky, which sparkles with a million stars. I imagine a dress, red with the blood of a thousand soldiers, fighting for their cause. I imagine the gods of mythology coming to life once again in tales so consuming, you don't want to go back to reality. In any of their songs, there is always a sense of belonging, acceptance. I think sometimes we lose ourselves in the superficiality of the music, and forget what makes it truly unique. When I listen to music, I try to imagine what it would be life if it was personified. I can usually pin-point a specific character in my mind,listening to Falling Up, I see men with roman noses, women with hair that reaches to the depths of the sea, I see a child's innocence being stolen in the night. For me, Falling Up is more that just a band, it is a world that is full of every possibility, hope, dream, love, battle, and conundrum you could ever want.
