Vox’s return to the night

Our Spring 2015 issue’s cover subject, Victoria Vox, could write her soulful pop ballads on almost any instrument and make them work, but by choosing ukulele, she seems free to tap into many styles, including Hawaiian, swing, and country.

Vox shows great range on When the Night Unravels, and her uke playing is accompanied by everything from horns to synths. She pairs playful tunes such as “Supermoon” and “Mail Order Bride” with darker, moody songs like “Echo,” all of which connect back to her Night theme.
