"There are moments in a life that are made of pure flux, all metamorphosis. But because of the nature of these timespans, artists typically speak from a place of being as opposed to becoming; there is the private experiment in its messiness and curiosity, and then the public artwork in its apparent solid state. Writer Lorrie Moore calls these moments, this being inside the thing and lacking the hindsight of structured narrative, “unsayable life.” We are rarely witness to them because they resist easy marketing. But to spend time with Nico Paulo, who never seems to stop singing, humming, and seeking melody is to find grounding beauty and sustainability in the becoming. It’s a special thing, to cultivate these intervals: they’re often the places where we’re finally able to find the present.
Aptly titled Interval_o—the ‘o’ nods to Paulo’s Portuguese heritage—the St. John’s, Newfoundland-based songwriter’s brief collection of ambient meditations and stream-of-life fragments celebrates a transformational period." visit FMG
