“Go look at your eyes, they’re full of moon”. This album is for daydreaming. Lyrically, it yearns for connection, examining the different ways people can connect, and the variations in fantasy and perception. When stories have many sides, they also have many truths. Musically, it’s a glorious and cinematic sonic fresco, holding beauty, musicality and romance in highest regard. It was recorded remotely over 18 of the strangest months in living memory, linking an all-star band based across three continents. The album grew outward in response to the physical world closing in. Even the more intimate songs luxuriate in their drama. Influences from every member of the Wainwright family, Joni Mitchell, the sophistication of the Great American Songbook and even classical composers sift through the songs seamlessly, alongside fuzzed out guitars and production that evokes the unsettling genius of Kate Bush. The diversity of Mooney’s song-writing is on full display: from artful indie-pop, to 80s-inspired eccentricity, to exquisite folk songs which feel instantly timeless, as Mooney combines a breadth of musicality to create a world and sound entirely her own. It was made during a period of global tragedy, as a way to find solace and catharsis in art and love. This record is about looking for someone to spend the end of the world with.
