Inspired by artists like Billie Holiday, and Joni Mitchell, vocalist Vanisha Gould has “a tone dripping with humor, knowledge and pathos,” says Downbeat. On She’s Not Shiny, She’s Not Smooth, she presents a musical philosophy and an ultimatum, upholding the beauty of imperfection, and the artistry of dancing between the fractures in every fleeting moment.

“Gould has the touch of a modern artist with an old soul who would make the pantheon of legendary singers smile.”
— Downbeat
