Through the Devil Softly

Since the release of Mazzy Star's debut album She Hangs Brightly, Hope Sandoval has defined the sound and style of California psychedelic dream pop. The world took notice when the surprise breakthrough single, "Fade Into You," hit the airwaves and heavy rotation at MTV. Sandoval's trademark vocals and beauty helped to make her a modern day music icon. Now the revered singer returns with her long awaited post-Mazzy Star sophomore album, Through the Devil Softly.

On it, the definitive star of the Paisley Underground scene reignites her trademark sound in an epic journey across eleven songs. The project continues the laid-back, slowcore sound they are renowned for and places Sandoval's sensuous, hypnotic voice in the forefront. Recorded at home in Berkley, the spare, subtle arrangements reinforce Sandoval's gentle vocal style.
