Album Notes & Community Reviews
Greatly expanding the lush, orchestral neo-soul of her debut, the British singer-songwriter incorporates heavily synthesized textures and funk rhythms into this ambitious project. The Mercury Prize-nominated album balances grand, choral-heavy art pop with intense vulnerability, exploring her personal struggles with crippling anxiety.
