My Take
Hope Sandoval interests me precisely because she gives so little away. In an industry built on oversharing, she barely faces the audience, and lets the voice do everything — and what a voice: that narcotic, half-asleep delivery that made Mazzy Star feel eternal. I love that heavyweights like Massive Attack and the Chemical Brothers keep borrowing her; drop her into any track and the temperature of the whole record changes. My take is that her shyness is not a limitation but the actual instrument — the mystery is structural, not accidental. Few singers have ever done more with less motion.
