"Lacrymosa - Simple Questions"

"‘Simple Questions’ from the new album is nigh on perfect, relying on angelic vocals and an arrangement that fills in the soft rounded gaps. There is a climax of sorts that gently but hurriedly dissipates, its end simply ushers a return to the crystal lake of sound. Spellbinding." - MP3 Hugger


"Artist to Watch: Cailtin Pasko of Lacrymosa"

"If you’re anything like us, your heart skipped a beat once you heard Caitlin Pasko of Lacrymosa‘s airy, lilting voice on our exclusive playlist with Family Records. It was love at first note, and near-idol worship once we found out Pasko just graduated from college!" - Mod Cloth Blog

Bio

The power behind Lacrymosa’s work comes as no surprise given her background. A native of Virginia Beach, she began studying classical piano from a very young age. Her complete mastery of the instrument is obvious in each song and the reason behind her distinctive musical voice. In addition to this piano focus, though, are a variety of other background instruments. In particular, Pasko’s use of strings gives her songs a richer and fuller sound, often offering a means of transition and support.

Her recent release, Selah, combines these classical elements with folksy pop and avant-garde vocals. “You Will Find Them” is probably my favorite track off of the album. Focusing mainly on the piano elements of the song, it maintains a bare simplicity without losing any of its strength. Lacrymosa demonstrates her vocal ability particularly well in “Not About Want”, which has her harmonizing particularly well with the music.
