AMN Reviews: Jeannine Schulz – Humble (Polar Seas Recordings)

Jeannine Schulz is from Hamburg and her third album Humble, released by Toronto’s Polar Seas Recordings, is a bold statement of masterful artistry. The nine pieces stretching over forty-five minutes center on sensitively played and manipulated guitar, picnicking within air textured as by a watercolorist´s practiced hand. It feels like it takes place in a meadow, with a creek running through it. Shifting in mood from light to dark and back, it has a warm and living character that causes one’s skin to tingle. Humble is an accomplishment, a perfect album of impressionistic ambient.
