Loma- Don't Shy Away
On December 26th, 2018, Emily Cross received an excited email from a friend: Brian Eno was talking about her band on BBC radio. "At first I didn't think it was real," she admits. But then she heard a recording: Eno was praising "Black Willow" from Loma's self-titled debut, a song whose minimal groove and hypnotic refrain seem as much farewell as a manifesto: I make my bed beside the road / I carry a diamond blade / I will not serve you. He said he'd had it on repeat.
Tracklist:
- I Fix My Gaze
- Ocotillo
- Half Silences
- Elliptical Days
- Given a Sign
- Thorn
- Breaking Waves Like a Stone
- Blue Rainbow
- Jenny
- Don't Shy Away
- Homing
