Pause - Poppy Ackroyd [VINYL]

Brighton based composer Poppy Ackroyd returns November 2021 with her fourth full length album 'Pause'. Written during the pandemic and shortly after the birth of her first child, the title refers to the feeling of normal life being temporarily put on hold. As individual stories, 'Pause' is compelling and ambitious but in its entirety it's a flawless snap-shot of its time, highlighting the highs and lows of the period as well as a unique and challenging era for its creator. It carries with it a host of stages we've all found ourselves working through and has done so with gorgeous, poetic lucidity, all the while expanding on the sounds usually expected of a solo piano record.
