Kara-Lis Coverdale [Ambient]

*** This blog post first appeared in TSMM's November 26th Newsletter, where you can get all the tips (and more) first ***

I feel like I should know more about Kara-Lis Coverdale, she seems to have been floating about my periphery and playlists more than the blog, and after a cursory listen it appears that not paying more attention to her well received, all ambient bases covered From Where You Came LP, and the ambient piano joys of A Series of Actions in a Sphere Forever album from earlier in the year was a grave oversight, and if you don’t know about the Smalltown Supersound then consider this a label introduction too, and I’ll consider this a reminder to do some active listening to her music very soon.

A Canadian musician, composer and producer based in Montreal, she focussed on music from an early age, and I’m happy to report decided to head down the road less travelled. Noticing Changes in Air brought me to this point and is just the sort of playful ambient tonic I need at the moment, sometimes the extended tracks take an age to evolve, others have their heads in the clouds like a child on the last day of summer term. This is my Coverdale gateway listen for now, but rest assured I’ll be exploring the rest of her 2025 releases over sooner rather than later.
