Hatchie - Liquorice - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

On her debut EP Sugar & Spice, Hatchie delivered the sonic equivalent of falling deliriously in love a sustained rush of feeling, rendered in swoony melodies and gauzy guitar tones and endlessly hypnotic layers of sound. Now, with her full-length debut Keepsake, the Australian singer/songwriter tries on countless new textures, exploring everything from industrial to new wave to dance-pop, handling each with understated elegance and pure, powerful feeling. In the making of Keepsake, the Brisbane-bred musician otherwise known as Harriette Pilbeam recorded in a home studio in Melbourne and worked again with John Castle.

The cover of Liquorice, the third album from Australian indie popartist Hatchie, features a closely cropped portrait of HarriettePilbeam laughing, her smudged red lipstick suggesting the gloriousaftermath of a kiss. Captured during a spontaneous backyard photoshoot using a dinky digital camera, the image encapsulates arecord that is rough around the edges and joyfully undone withthemes of longing, lust, and regret.Pilbeam began writing Liquorice in earnest while living in Brisbaneover 2022-2023, and later at a home shared with Agius inMelbourne, ultimately completing the demos in mid-2024. As amusician who has previously worn her influences on her sleeve,Pilbeam strove to write from scratch without any specific musicalinfluences in mind; allowing songs to breathe for weeks, rather thanrushing ideas. She found herself drawn to the melodic simplicity ofher early songs and embraced her musical insecurities InchI wanted tosee my limitations as strengths that inform my style.InchAfter working with producers Jorge Elbrecht (Caroline Polachek,Japanese Breakfast, Sky Ferreira) and Dan Nigro (Olivia Rodrigo,Chappell Roan) on Giving the World Away, Pilbeam wanted tocomplete Liquorice with a single collaborator, ideally a non-maleproducer who also fronts their own musical project. In September2024, Pilbeam and Agius returned to Los Angeles to work withMelina Duterte, who records indie rock under the name Jay Somand has production credits on an assortment of projects includingthe GRAMMY-winning boygenius album the record.InchMy last album ended up being really dark and introspective andthat is one part of me, but there was this whole other side that I feltlike I wasn't expressing,Inch Pilbeam says.
