Amoeba Review
Canadian singer renforshort’s debut album, dear amelia, is so assured and effective it seems like superstardom can’t be far away. Lauren Isenberg, aka renforshort, easily slips from charming, buoyant indie pop to slow-burn, confessional ballads. Even when she’s collaborating with icons like Travis Barker (“We’ll Make This Ok”) and acclaimed next gen stars like Jake Bugg (“Let You Down”), renforshort always favors grounded authenticity with an indie ethos instead of high-gloss pop. Highlights include “Julian, King of Manhattan,” a tongue-in-cheek ode to the singer’s appreciation for Julian Casablancas and “Amelia,” a haunting piano number that confronts the darkness inside.
