I don’t know why Glasser, aka Cameron Mesirow, has never appeared in this column before. I think we all just assumed she had. Why would we not have covered someone who makes such brilliant music? I guess now’s not the time to ponder this, as her debut album is imminent. Entitled ‘Ring’, it will be released on 27 Sep via the Matador-owned True Panther Sounds.
Glasser’s debut EP, ‘Apply’, was released last year through Young Turks, its title track a sparse concoction of syncopated percussion, sloping synths and echoing vocals, almost tribal in sound. A perfect way to announce her arrival. Her debut single, ‘Tremel’, released in March, takes a different approach, using the same elements but filling out the gaps with a more dense electronic sound; a marked development in the Glasser sound, and also an exciting first taste of what’s to come on the album.
