Yesterday Is Gone – Dana Gavanski [VINYL]

‘I’m learning how to say goodbye / to let you go and face the tide / to wrap my feelings in a song’, sings Dana Gavanski on the title track of her debut LP, ‘Yesterday Is Gone’. To wrap her feelings in a song: this is the task Dana has dedicated herself to with this record. It’s a goal common to many songwriters, but few approach it with such aplomb. By turns break-up album, project of curiosity, and, as Dana puts it, ‘a reckoning with myself’, ‘Yesterday Is Gone’ is her attempt to ‘learn to say what I feel and feel what I say’: an album of longing and devotion to longing, and of the uncertainty that arises from learning about oneself, of pushing boundaries, falling hard, and getting back up.
