My sophomore album, Living Room. 11 songs of Sydney, the everyday, the big and the small, ambition and space, the imperfect, natural light and the people around me 🌇

Living Room

There’s always this sort of creative re-evaluation period after you finish a project. After Open, A Home, singing felt like the next logical step towards being more free and genuine with my music. Colour of the Water is one of the first songs that came out of experimenting with my voice. It uses experience I had trekking over Lake Tekapo in New Zealand as a metaphor for seeing a relationship from a distance. The tides of two lakes represent two lovers - 'We’re blue and green in a crescent hold’. I ended up asking my friend Ivy-Jane Browne to sing the second verse, and song became a sort of duet.

This song came out very easily. I did a writing trip at the beginning of the year with my friend Chris Lanzon and it got me thinking about how certain lyrics can frame things in a way that makes the everyday seem extraordinary. It’s an idea that I was already thinking about, but off the back of that trip I found myself noting down lots of lyric ‘seeds’ that were just observations from my day to day life. When I sat down at the piano with those main chords, I scrolled back through all the seeds and just put them side by side - with that the song formed itself! It came to be about observing the world and others around you and the world observing back. It wasn’t until later on that I realised the song was doing something I had been reaching for since I started this new era of music - capturing the wholesomness/ lightness of the second Paddington Bear movie (one of my favourite movies).

A year and a half of working, growing and watching the light change around me is made worthwhile by now being able to share that experience with the world. 

 This song is called Fade Into, and it features my wonderful friend Ivy-Jane Browne.

Intro (Leaving)

Chame (feat. Jofi) is out now. This song is about Nepal and memory. I’m so excited for you to hear where my music is headed 💙

Chame (feat. Jofi)

UP is about persistence and resolve, that idea of getting up in the morning and moving forwards regardless of what you’re feeling. It’s the cold air jolting you into the day, a blooming and an opening.

My Friend, The Water

Lyrically, 'I Don't Believe You' jumps between being conflicted and confident and I wanted to represent this with a similarly frantic instrumental. The bass clarinet actually came from an old un-released idea I worked on with my friends Laura Power and Zhuli, and the piano was from another random sketch. It was one of those collage-like songs, that all came together in 2020 after a random burst of inspiration.

Clear Blue

Centennial Road is a beautiful stretch of vineyards just outside of Bowral. I've driven along it countless times throughout my life, and found myself revisiting those peaceful memories during lockdown last year. When it came to recording, I wanted to capture these memories and my surroundings as the song is so closely tied to them. I borrowed my mum's phone and used it to mic up the balcony while I was recording - you can actually hear a magpie caw-ing from the balcony at the very end of the song.

Warm (Centennial Road)

Wholeheartedly blends gospel style piano reminiscent of Bon Iver, with Coldplay-esque crescendos. It was inspired by the sort of piano playing where the chords and vocals dance around each other. The lyrics are based around that idea of never quite committing to the present, a feeling that seemed to be particularly drawn out of me during lockdown last year.
