‘Easy to like' says Pitchfork of GLASSER, the one-woman orchestra of Cameron Mesirow; ‘easy to love' say we. On Ring, the L.A. native's universally praised debut lp, ethereal vocals swirl above an intoxicating mix of tribal percussion, lush electronics and orchestral flourishes. It's mystical, yes, but without any of the put-on eccentricity or pretension those words sometimes imply. Glasser's music, like her beguiling, beautifully restrained live shows, is the real deal: generous, direct and free of any gimmickry, all of it built around Mesirow's formidable pipes.
