Far Away So Close

San Fran rave loyalist Chelsea Faith aka Cherushii centered her 2nd EP around its title track, which evokes a Balearic dream sequence along some Mediterranean isle – swooping shorelines, seagulls, liquid sky sax (courtesy of jazz multi-instrumentalist Marcia Miget), sensual surfer acid. Escape as experience. The record’s other three cuts stake her map across varied terrain, from maximalist catwalk (“Set You Free”) to sublime moonlight (“Nightsteps”) to sparkling pleasure dome (“Sweet Spot”). Far Away So Close finds Faith at her most focused and free, glitter in her eyes and the dancefloor in her fingers.
