About This Item
- Details
- Genre: Rock
- Description: By the time Irish musician Maria Somerville started writing Luster, her landmark tag debut for 4AD, she had lived away from her native Connemara for quite some time. Having grown up amongst the wild, mountainous terrain of Galway's rural west coast, she later relocated to Dublin, where she patiently developed an atmospheric dream pop signature inspired by the landscape of her youth - a spellbinding soundworld of gusting ambient electronics, ethereal guitar strums, sparse percussion, and hushed lyrical vignettes. In 2019, this culminated in All My People, a self-released LP steeped in reverb, nostalgia and a yearning for home that won praise from discerning press and listeners alike. It was upon returning to Connemara, in a house near where she was raised overlooking one of the country's largest lakes, Lough Corrib, that work commenced on the songs that would eventually become Luster, an album that illuminates Somerville's music anew, pushing it forward in both sound and spirit. Where All My People conveyed memories and melancholic longing with misty slowcore balladry, these 12 tracks show us an artist who's more assured in the path her life has taken, and the person she's become in the process. As she sings in 'Trip' - InchI can see more clearly than I could before. I know now what's true for me. With the of Luster, she has signaled the arrival of a new era that will see her play around the world in 2025 accompanied by a live band. Rest assured though, no matter where Somerville goes, she'll take a piece of home with her - a living, breathing, timeless essence you can sense in every note, as clear as the air by the Corrib. Album Tracks 1. Réalt 2. Projections 3. Garden 4. Corrib 5. Halo 6. Spring 7. Stonefly 8. Flutter 9. Trip 10. Violet 11. Up 12. October Moon
