Dutch singer/songwriter Isabel van Gelder’s second and latest EP, Lovesick, builds on the promise of her auspicious debut from earlier this year, Minor Details (highlighted by “Die For You” and “Run,” as well as the deceptively charming “My Silly Boy”), presenting her burgeoning talent in even starker relief.
Moments of understated, intimate balladry (“Complicated,” “Before I Let You Go”) complement ones of more exuberant melodic pop (“Kissing You Away”) with remarkable aplomb. Ultimately, van Gelder’s voice is at once sensuous and tender, summoning these songs like soliloquies, immersive and thoroughly irresistible.
