On the show this time, it's the startling sound of future-soul wayfinder Spellling.

“Spellling,” with 3 “L’s” is the name of Oakland, California artist Tia Cabral’s ambitious solo project. If you were lost in a mythical forest, or a futuristic city, or even just stumbling aimlessly somewhere along Telegraph or San Pablo Avenue in Oakland — It's not that Spellling would know the way home (though she might.) It’s that, without a doubt, she would create a pathway to somewhere, and the journey to that new place would be delightful. It would be enchanting. Her latest album is called The Turning Wheel, embracing — both in title and in spirit — the karmic circle of life. The music combines her flexible airy voice with mischievous harmony, synths with acoustic orchestra, and natural or supernatural topics. It's available on Sacred Bones Records.

Recorded 10/29/2022.
