Amber Arcades- European Heartbreak
European Heartbreak was recorded and co-produced in Los Angeles, California with Chris Cohen from Deerhoof and in Richmond, Virginia with Trey Pollard (Natalie Prass, The Waterboys, Bedouine) overseeing horn and string overdubs from Spacebomb Studios. A vast step forward from her critically acclaimed debut album Fading Lines, this selection of songs flit around Europe, from Berlin to Spain to the south of France. It's European not just in lyrical theme but in the sly sophistication of its music. These songs carry with them the air of open-topped cars on cliff top roads, cocktails on the terrace at sunset but the lyrics undercut that sunny mood, artfully and skillfully.
