The singer-songwriter discusses her album and its themes of 'love, loss and everything in between'.
Her father is a jazz musician, and still plays saxophone at gigs around Oxford. Her brother plays double bass with the Welsh National Orchestra and even her grandmother sang and played classical music."I started playing piano when I was five... so from all different angles there was always different kinds of music."
She says it raised in her the possibility of "doing something slightly different with your voice than a very standard pop kind of singing" and a "lyrical expression about deep personal experiences and seeing how you can turn them into songs". Despite this prolonged period of recording, getting down the individual tracks, which mainly involved vocals with piano or guitar, was a swift process."So when I got into the studio it was fairly quick. We mostly did it with me playing and singing at the same time and we recorded it as a live thing, so mostly just did a few takes."
