Never one to sit still when there’s music to be made, Portland songstress Laura Gibson crafted the 2012 EP Little Red Riding Hood to satiate her fans in between her second and third studio albums. She opens with the title track, a cover of the song by Sam the Sham & The Pharaohs. This rendition is spooky with haunting reverb, eerie slide guitar, and Gibson’s self-harmonies singing like twin ghosts. “La Grande"—from her third full-length album of the same name—follows, with lo-fi folk rock swirled into a vintage spaghetti western tone and Tom Waits–inspired percussion. If Jolie Holland could time travel back to 1967 Woodstock, N.Y., and interlope on the sessions for The Basement Tapes, it might sound like “La Grande.” (An acoustic demo version of the tune closes the EP.) “Milk-Heavy, Pollen-Eyed” is another gem from Gibson's third album; it's a woodwind-laced love song that sounds forged around a campfire's roaring flames.
