Best Of 2022

When I first heard Chlorinefields, it was like the Cocteau Twins but sludgier, dirtier, sadder. Vocalist and multi-instrumentalist Kersey Williams pours her heart all over this project with warm guitar licks, her soft vocals and lyrics like a whisper and a wail. The band also features Ortrotasce’s Nic Hamersly on guitar, synth, and arrangements. Chris Angell is on guitar and does songwriting as well, with Jeffrey Fuscardo on bass and Clayton Pendergrass on percussion. A little Portishead, a little Mazzy Star, and some top shelf musicality. It’s music guided by feeling and tailored by people who’ve been playing music, probably, all their lives. The resulting sound is hauntingly beautiful, grimey, and downright groovy. chlorinefields420.bandcamp.com
