Some say life only makes sense in reverse, from the vantage point of your
rear view -
Magic Mirror is a looking glass of sorts. Like a modern day Alice in
Wonderland, Pearl Charles beckons you to slip and fall into her world.
You'll find yourself drifting with the tide - the ups, downs, and all-arounds
of a life well-lived and well- loved.
From start to finish you float along a reflective river, dancing in your
own/the personal/private Studio 54 of your living room, decked out in
sequins or nothing at all. It's a feel good album that asks us to actually
take the time to feel good. Magic Mirror follows the cartography of a girl,
growing into a woman, as she moves through life from singledom, to the
expansive space of self-reflection, and the newly appreciated
perspective of coming back together again and finding yourself, this
time with someone new.
A love letter to the self, a dance party for life, and at times as
introspective as your best trip, Pearl takes us on a journey that, like life &
love, has the tendency to surprise, delight, and leave you breathless. All
you have to do is let yourself enjoy it.
