Cardiff’s Ani Glass today release ‘Phantasmagoria’, the first single from her upcoming bilingual album Phantasmagoria. A dreamy, hypnotic track that schmooshes lush synths, eerie flutes, and delicate vocals that summon her influences of early Goldfrapp and Enya.

Written in the wake of her brain tumour diagnosis, the track is a reminder that sometimes the best way to move forward is to let yourself rest, reflect, and just breathe.

With lyrics in Cymraeg (Welsh), Kernewek (Cornish), and English, as well as some BSL woven into her live performances, the forthcoming album Phantasmagoria brings together all languages and mediums at Ani’s disposal to express a poignant time in her life.
