Ferret is a one-woman-band fronted/run by Tiffany Harris. Everything is recorded through her laptop microphone. It’s hit or miss with the recording quality. But even when it’s shitty, Tiffany is still able to make some of the most beautiful music you’ll hear. She layers everything. Layering guitars, vocals, sometimes even trumpets. When she does this it makes it sound as if she has an entire band of 10 people playing with her. It’s kind of hard to imagine all of it coming from one person. Only until recently all of her songs had the infamous “(short demo clip)” or something like that at the end of her songs. Most of these songs are those songs that you wish would just keep going for at least 10 minutes. She has come out with a new “album” every 3 months. But when she starts on a new album, she releases every track as soon as she’s done. So you get to experience the making of the album process with her. She has 4 full length albums and 1 EP. Right now, she’s working on her 5th album Jellyfish. She started it back in November and she’s 6 songs in. This one is her best one yet, but all of her music is great. Go check them out.
