South London-based multidisciplinary artist Clara Mann announces her new album, Wishbone, due for release on 23 October via state51, alongside its lead single, ‘News From Home’.
Capturing the golden glow of memory and weaving together threads of nostalgia through a country-tinged lens, ‘News From Home’ radiates a quiet warmth.
“This song is a thread between a once-home landscape and my real, adult life. It’s about visiting and looking at my hometown, knowing that, whilst this used to be everything, my whole life, now I have a big wide life of my own, and things to get back to – and holding both of those next to each other, and seeing how they make each other more beautiful, and also more strange. The instrumentation is supposed to have a feeling of an old country song, slightly haunting percussion and the shimmery synth…. I thought about big wide open skies and walking over the hills at golden hour.”
