The White Birch - Lantern

After "Theater Island," last year's 6-track EP, Sóley returns with her first full-length, an album full of rhythmic makeshift creatures, of handclaps hidden in the undergrowth, tempting us to join in. The 13 tracks are sometimes incredibly catchy; amazingly quirky at other times: think cardigan-folk from the northern hemisphere, an ocean of stained glasses bopping up and down in the shared apartment's dishwater, leeward in limbo. The result is refreshing in its lack of edginess; think Joanna Newsom minus her harp, or the Casady sisters circa 2004, but then clearly better trained, less crooked. In other words: her voice, those loops moving around like wooden toys, and finally the piano – that's the backbone, the essence of her compositions; at least until some unexpected element appears elsewhere, a rhythmic creaking or the lack thereof, like a hidden Rube Goldberg machine, setting off yet another component, thus paving the way across the threshold and on into the next realm of sound. And thus we keep on sinking, deeper and deeper, until we stand on terra firma once again, realizing that somehow, next to us, above us, around us, a beat is laid out, hesitantly moving along at first, then careering…

Ailbhe Reddy's new single 'Distrust':

"‘Distrust’ is her latest track, a song which pushes and pulls between acceptance, desire and distrust: at once mournful yet resolved to move on." - Nialler9

Irish Times 'New Artist of the Week' - "Her latest track Distrust marks a turning point towards a more developed sound. With the production help of Darragh Nolan, is more complex and memorable than what has gone before." - Niall Byrne, The Irish Times

"The stark production, use of harmonic background texture and large vocal swells makes for beguiling track." - Stephen White, The Last Mixed Tape

"‘Distrust’ is an indie pop tune that showcases Ailbhe’s distinguishing vocals. With lyrics that are both emotive and defiant yet hold a hint of open vulnerability, this mid-tempo track is well worth a listen." - Anna Henderson, Dublin Concerts

Lyrics:

I'm not a mistake,
Hurts when you talk that way, that way.
I'm not a waste, 
The time it takes to fuck this up.
The distaste, distrust.

And I'll miss you,
I'll miss you...

But I'm not in love,
I don't think I can be, 
Thought that I could be with you.
I'm not in love,
No I can't be, 
Thought I could be with you, you.

With you, with you, with you...

It's not a shame,
You act this way, 
It just shows,
It's me you loathe.
I'm not afraid,
To walk away because I know.
I'm built to live alone.

And I'll miss you 
I'll miss you...

But I'm not in love,
I don't think I can be, 
Thought that I could be with you.
I'm not in love,
No I can't be, 
Thought I could be with you, you.
