Laura Groves Signs To Bella Union, Shares New Song 'Infinite Wisdom'
A full EP is incoming...
*Laura Groves* will release her new EP through Bella Union on December 4th.
The Yorkshire born, London based artist previously released music as Blue Roses, while also working alongside Sampha and Bat For Lashes.
Now signed to Bella Union and using her own name, Laura Groves has sketched out plans for a new EP.
Out on December 4th, 'A Private Road' contains six tracks, connecting the inner and outer worlds while displaying a narrative gift.
She comments...
“This record, made mostly on my own, became both a channel for the expression of an inner world and an imagined soundtrack to my physical journeys through the city. It is rooted in the stories, atmospheres, mistakes and wrong turns, desires and layers of meaning that run through and play out in the landscapes we inhabit.”
“The songs are snapshots of late night journeys across the river, the sparks of love that transform us and keep us going, the dead ends that the mind can lead us down, the erotic, the visible and invisible places we pass through as they merge and are erased and overwritten. The ability and opportunity to create and connect through music is a gift and I’m so happy to be able to share these new explorations with you.”
New song 'Infinite Wisdom' leads the way, a striking offering with a beautifully shot video. She says:
“The video for 'Infinite Wisdom' is a collaboration between myself and visual artist Sophie le Roux. I shot the footage at home during the lockdown and then sent it to Sophie, who edited it and added animation. This method of working was due to necessity at the time, but I like how it reflects the self-produced nature of the record and also how rewarding and special a collaborative process can be.”
