    One of my favourite "new" artists! (I'm almost 60 so anything after 2000 feels new to me!)

    Haven't had this feeling since Cocteau Twins in high school. Marvelous. Thank you.

    Aw sweetheart - thank you for being honest with us about the tragedy and finding your path forward. We all need to remember how hard these things are.

    • @kagillogly
      @kagillogly Рік тому +1

      As I have personally experienced with tragedy - and as I tell my students at university - it's not the obstacles, it's the persistence. And most of all, it's the love. You stopped your degree to take care of a dying parent? Then that's what you do.

    Gawd, I’ve been watching this show for many, many episodes, but this… this hit different. ❤

    Incredible full hearted music! Appreciate the authentic heartfelt sharing. The depth of the music was transformed from a place of loss and uncertainty. Grandad shared important wisdom. I'm just learning about their music and its the deep medicine.

      Yes indeed, and This Mortal Coil, Dead Can Dance and even a bit of Flock of Seagull's (guitar at some moment) but without Paul Reynolds touch...which would be great for a crecendo on some of the song. Anyway, Great music and a nice discovery for me today.

      She plays like an unconstrained bassist but if you want to say she’s playing like a lead guitar & fucking up then that’s a cool un-nuanced opinion

    If her voice sounds familiar, she did vocals for Sophie's early releases such as Lemonade back in 2013. Such a warm energy and vibe, and a fantastic talent.
