Ears Wide Open: Quigley

The arty, airy new EP from L.A.-based Quigley comes sprinkled with a fairy dust and a little existential angst, emblematic, its creator says, to there being “no end to what one person and their laptop can create.” Titled “Initium,” it fits in the kaleidoscopic world inhabited by artists such as Imogen Heap, Ellie Goulding and FKA Twigs. And it’s the work of native Minnesotan Casey Carlson, the 27-year-old who a few years back was a contender on “American Idol” Season 8 and went on to adopt the name Quigley and collaborate with the producer Frankmusik on a 2012 EP, “Pleaides.” Now she’s writing and producing on her own, announcing a new start on the single “Beginning of Anything” (a collaboration with Sombear) and, faced with the end on “Post Post Apocalypse,” declaring “We might as well just do what we feel.”
