Vera Gogh

Miss Vera Gogh is fuming freedom, femininity, power, and sexuality. Her songs explore the misshapen trials of relationships and love, and the empowerment of sex. Her lyrics suggest resolved angers and understanding, assuaged by enervated acceptance, facilitated through the exhaustive pursuit of experiential wisdom. Her effectual voice is deeply emotive, powerful, soft, hard, angry, understanding, forgiving, and strangely seductive all at once. She can be as soft and soothing as a cool butter spread gliding across your lips, or as hard as your cheekbone cracking open on a seashore rock because your enamored eyes were diverted from the path at hand in admiration of the sunset. Vera delivers her sermons in a classy and resolute way, preaching the truth of love’s journey as she knows it.

Accompanying Vera’s tell tale voice and acoustic guitar is an array of sounds painting a high quality picture of aural delight; banjo, keys, xylophone, and backing vocalists fill her songs with shape and color.  The finished product assures that the music will find safe passage to it’s proper destination: the corresponding receptors, chemical centers, hallways, doorways, and secret lockers of your mind. Vera Gogh’s Blue Pearl of Happiness album will appeal to several of your deepest human emotions, while petitioning your heart and questioning your boundaries of love and sex.
