Breeze, Emily
Rapture
Vinyl is a limited edition of 500 copies. Bristol based pop noir artist Emily Breeze returns with new album 'Rapture'. Written and recorded in her 40th year on planet earth, the songs are a poignant and humorous take on how it feels to grow old disgracefully in an increasingly weird world. She describes the album as "a collection of coming-of (middle age) stories which celebrate flamboyant failure, excess and acceptance. "I was receiving advice from music industry types to try and hide my age as if it was a dirty secret like an S.T.D or a disgraced royal, so I decided to do the exact opposite". This may have been a wise decision as previous single "Confessions Of An Ageing Party Girl'' received airplay from Lauren Laverne, Don Letts and Tom Robinson (BBC Radio 6) who commented "The UK's 21st century answer to Patti Smith" alongside continued support from BBC Radio Bristol and BBC Introducing in the West and was described as "the script of a kitchen sink drama filmed like a glamorous noir, the results are triumph of glittering melancholy" (Louder Than War).
