Cortney Tidwell – “Be Gentle”

While I patiently wait for the new full-length album from Cortney Tidwell I am happy to report she’s putting out music under the moniker Fever Queen; complete with it’s own Soundcloud. The latest release is a 14 minute, largely improvised, track called “Be Gentle” written in honor of her mother.

Fourteen minutes is a long time for any song but there’s a meditative state that this is capable of putting you in if you embrace it. Turn it up loud and let those booming drums wrap you up tight, like a good ole fashioned swaddling.
