There is a certain kind of pain that comes with loss. Such is the hard-fought and hard-won journey of Wallis Bird’s latest album, I Can See Your House From Here. This masterful work finds Bird sifting through the grief of losing a close friend, while also mourning the state of the world.
On opener 'And So Turns The Wheel', Bird – over wistful folk airs – invites us into her pain while painting a portrait of enduring love, confessing: “My tears are for you / I spend them with pride”. Across this journey of resolute vulnerability, Bird crafts a soundscape of shimmering vibrancy and optimistic progression. The gospel-hued, yet lyrically bruised ‘Call The Healer’, finds the singer pleading, “I want love more than anything”.
