Novo Amor and Ed Tullett first crossed paths in November 2013, at the Newport date of Ed’s UK tour. After showing an immediate appreciation for each other’s work, Ed, based in Brighton, spent December at Novo Amor (Ali Lacey)’s Cardiff home-studio, writing a record’s worth of material.

Recorded in March and self-produced by the pair in Cardiff, ‘Faux’ is the first realization of their collaborative talent, a swirling combination of their stunning falsettos, giant acoustic swells, and cryptic lyrics. The single, to be released via Norway-based label Brilliance Records, and Dumont Dumont, home to RY X, is an addictive alternative-folk behemoth.

Ed Tullett is currently putting final touches to his new record, ‘Fiancé’, a dark, electronic departure to his early acoustic work, after having remixes of Bon Iver (released on Spotify on the Bon Iver Stems Project album) and Local Natives shared by the bands themselves. 

Novo Amor’s ‘Woodgate, NY’ EP was released in March via Brilliance to rave reviews (6/6 – GAFFA, 8/10 – The 405), after premiering on The Line Of Best Fit. 

Their collaboration is the start of something bigger, as they prepare to write further and look to crafting a full record later in the year.

Brilliance Records is a small indie label out of Bergen, Norway. The label’s focus is to discover and present new brilliant music.

Dumont Dumont is a label based in Stockholm, Sweden. Australian artist RY X was the first artist to be released on the label.

Faux, by Novo Amor & Ed Tullett, was released via Brilliance / Dumont Dumont.

Novo Amor & Ed Tullett - Faux

Anna, Please Don't Go

[Verse 1]
I watched your ship fade through Prime’s morning light,
You said, “I’ll ping you past Ellis Nine tonight.”
But the channels are quiet, just static and breath,
And the soft glow of cities that won’t forget.

Your sweater still clings to the back of that chair,
Smells like static, like jasmine, like your hair.
The comm blinks red, but it's just a lie—
“No new messages,” just time passing by.

[Chorus]
And I’m lost in love on Terra,
While your heart’s chasing stars,
Jump points and broken charts,
And I’m stuck in these boulevard bars.
Still singing on Terra,
Still waiting for a sign,
But the echo of you
Is the only thing that’s mine.

[Verse 2]
I walk past the café near Solstice and Vine,
Where we used to talk ‘til the lights cut the sky.
Now the vendors just smile like they don’t recall,
Selling memories to ghosts in the fall.

You once said, “The void’s not cold if you care,”
But baby, it is—when you’re not there.
I write your name in the mist on the glass,
Counting the jumps since you last looked back.

[Chorus]
Yeah, I’m lost in love on Terra,
While your ship burns through night,
Drifting past constellations
I can’t hold or rewrite.
Still grounded on Terra,
Still soft in the sound,
Of a love that slipped orbit
And never touched down.

[Bridge]
Did you mean to vanish, or was it the drift?
Did the distance grow wide, or did you just shift?
Your last message came at 03:04—
I was dreaming of you…
You were closing the door.

[Chorus – Final]
So I’m lost in love on Terra,
While your signal’s gone dark,
Just a whisper in space,
Just a tear in the spark.
Still playing on Terra,
Still caught in your tune,
But this song only echoes
When I’m singing to the moon.

[Outro – spoken, soft, almost whispered]
If you hear this—wherever you are—
Just know I kept the light on by the star.

Lost in Love on Terra

If you’re a closed book then why can I still read your pages?
Yeah, I see them in your face when you look at me that way
Not much has changed here
If I could, I’d grab the wrists of time and run right back to the start
Even knowing how it ended, I’d do it all again, dear
Just to hold you in my arms
One last time

Or was it all just a dream
And I’ve finally woken up
I thought I gave you the best of me
Though it never felt enough
I guess some things aren’t meant to be
Darling, I know that now
But I’m hoping that I’m just fast asleep
And when I wake up you’ll be here

Each song, a finger to a hand that’s reaching out
Each line, a tooth in a mouth that’s screaming out
Behind my closed doors
Can you hear me through the walls?
That you once walked through,
Yeah you just walked through

Or was it all just a dream
And I’ve finally woken up
I thought I gave you the best of me
Though it never felt enough
I guess some things aren’t meant to be
Darling, I know that now
But I’m hoping that I’m just fast asleep
And when I wake up you’ll be here
In my arms
