[NoHo Arts District, CA] – A NoHo Arts music review of Auroara Leigh’s “Emergence” single release.
There’s something magical about the human voice. In its purest form, speaking words from the heart. Simple, beautiful and deeply connected to us all. Auroara Leigh is a Canadian Metis singer-songwriter. Her indigenous traditions are woven into her music and this track is a gorgeous fusion of her European ancestry and her indigenous roots.
“Emergence” immediately reminded me of India Arie’s “I am Light.” It grabs you with the same immediacy. The song feels like it’s about all of us. Fear, uncertainty, a longing to be free. The space in between the music and the haunting powerful vocals resonates with truth and swirls around us. It brings us to what is most important, to what we all long for. Belonging…
The softness of this track defies the power in it. The drums, the fiddle, the layers of voices. “They were always your scars, they were never mine.” Such gorgeous tones and heartfelt meaning. I love it. I hope to hear much more from Auroara Leigh.
