Tei Shi is the alias of Brooklyn-based singer-songwriter Valerie Teicher, and the music she makes is deceptively simple. It always starts out quietly, a single idea trembling over a refined palette of sound, frequently stripping back to harmonies and nothing else - but as it builds, always with total mastery and never giving away too much, it touches so squarely on the feelings of nostalgia and melancholy hinted at by its title that it's almost painful.
