“flavours of Jenny Hval, Tune-yards, Madeline Kenny and Fiona Apple along the way.” Secret Meeting
Exploring unconventional love, ‘Homesick’ is the second single to be released from Sara Wolff’s forthcoming new EP ‘Magic Hour’. Emerging from what she calls, “a year of sound” and a well overdue trip back to her childhood home of Bergen, it marks an expansion in the Liverpool based avant-garde artist’s home-spun universe and explores how just when you have everything sussed, life will throw you a curveball. Her first Single “Don’t Feed The Birds’ received support from Radio 1 and BBC 6 Music.
Teasing her new EP ‘Magic Hour’ Sara’s music see-saws with rocking horse momentum, and joy in discovery as each is spun from a place where friends unite to make music as meticulous as pintuck ruffles or as decorative as the broderie of her grandmother’s blouse she wears on its sleeve. Her own coming-of-age has seen Sara enjoying the nature in Liverpool’s parks whilst navigating a new language, and yet, it was a return to the familiar mountaintop vistas of her Norwegian roots she left at 19 where she would truly get to know herself. “You meet yourself in the past whenever you go home, it’s like a mirror to where you once were and who you used to be,” she says. “It can be so strange to see how everything changes and how nothing has changed at the same time.”
In the 12 months following the single release of ‘Bad Thoughts Compilation’ from debut EP When You Left The Room - collaboration and composition has led the way. Lacing a crimson thread through a tapestry of rich arrangements, her avant-garde knit-pop has been honed through producing other artists; touring as a session musician; embarking upon her first solo tour of art spaces, book shops, and museums with her trusty 4-track cassette machine and the morphing visuals of multidisciplinary artist heka in tow; a summer residency at Sage Gateshead; and even composing for dance shows or discovering new sounds whilst hosting her monthly Cloudberries radio show.
