Week

End

Whether on a rainy Sunday in Cologne-Ehrenfeld or on the legendary stage of the Ed Sullivan Theatre, home of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert—Jessica Pratt is never fazed. Quite the opposite: she captivates any audience with her unique and extraordinary timbre. We are drawn into her song cosmos, where she wraps us around her fingers, which then strum the strings of her guitar with nonchalance and warmth. Pratt’s songwriting is as reminiscent of Sibylle Baier’s rediscovered work as it is of Joni Mitchell and other icons between Los Angeles and New York. On her latest record, “Here in the Pitch,” she moves into the widescreen domain of the cinematic and theatrical for the first time—and of course it works wonderfully.
