Richard Hawley – In This City They Call You Love
Out now
As Standing at the Sky’s Edge, the musical featuring new and existing songs by Hawley, continues
its award-winning West End run, the Sheffield singer-songwriter returns with his 10th album. The
singles Heavy Rain and Prism in Jeans showcase his skill for richly melodic vignettes that conjure
up vivid imagery.
Bat for Lashes – The Dream of Delphi
Out now
Inspired by the birth of her daughter Delphi during the pandemic, Natasha Khan’s sixth album as
Bat for Lashes was trailed by the ethereal title track, a Björk-esque merging of bubbling
electronics, harp and Khan’s featherlight vocal, while Home is a typically gorgeous slice of tactile
pop.
