Maggie's resonant purity inspires building futures or collapsing into the arms of someone who loves you after a brutal day. All told, it may be the most unapologetically human album ever to breach Pop radio:

Rhe standout track off The Echo is the closing tune, "Satellite." Arranged with a piano, violin and trumpet, the song features Maggie crooning about a moment of reprieve without indulging in maudlin sentimentality:

"Embers", "Wolves" and "Deep in the Earth" are also very worthy:

The album Blood Ballet continues where The Echo left off. While a little more consistent, the album lacks a strong emotional centerpiece like "Satellite" which leaves me yearning for more. That said, it still features great tunes like "Resonant Body", "James", "Drift", "Little Joys", "Anybody" and, of course, the highlight "Symmetry":

Finally, we have her previously unreleased Shoegaze EP that appeared on Notes From the Archive: Recordings 2011-2016. According to her commentary, one of the tunes came about as a result of her separating from her man who moved to LA in pursuit of a career. Despite spending two years in a committed relationship, she still yearned to be together while he chased his dreams beyond the Rockies. The music here reaches an emotional peak that wouldn't quite be felt until Surrender:
