Active since 2007 and currently based in Brooklyn, Pepi Ginsberg belongs to the category of musicians who see songwriting as a challenge to generic and derivative music – and this is attitude is precisely what we expect from New York City based artists. Her personal style, honed since her 2009 debut "Red", consists in raw but clean sounding DIY songs following unexpected melodies built on unusual, often bizarrely angular arrangements. The first single from the upcoming album ("20TH Century Crime," streaming below, video here) reveals though a new musical approach, more organic, lyrical and dreamy than the previous releases, which could be the reason behind Pepi’s choice to release it under the new Companion moniker. This is an artist for those who, like us, love innovative female songwriters with great voices like Lia Ices and Jesca Hoops. – The single below was added to our Indie and Mellow SoundCloud compilations, you can find the link on the top right of this page.
