Stonechild

180gm vinyl LP pressing includes digital download. A culmination of life and musical experience, uncompromising in it's vision, Stonechild, the new studio album from Jesca Hoop is a self-described "compassion project." The 11-track collection is Hoop refined and defined. Beautiful, subtle and stark, her fifth album, the follow up to 2017's highly acclaimed Memories Are Now, is also her best yet. Despite being a long-term resident of Manchester, Hoop, has until now, returned to her native California to record. This time round however, "it was" according to Hoop "time to step out of my comfort zone, my safe place," venturing south to Bristol to team up with producer John Parish (PJ Harvey, Aldous Harding, This is the Kit). Parish's minimal and purist approach helped clarify Hoop in her ideas and subtly yet effectively realigning her sound. The simplified arrangements draw focus to the fundamental sophistication of the songs. While Hoop's trademark finger-plucked guitar and ethereal textures remain, the songs and their presentation are ever more direct.
