Tirzah – Colourgrade

Label: Domino
Released: 1st October 2021

Tirzah’s debut album ‘Devotion’ was a critically acclaimed sleeper hit in 2018 and introduced an artist with a distinct singular vision for making emotionally intense and dreamy experimental pop. 

‘Colourgrade’ richly builds on that alluring palette and again finds the artist working in collaboration with Mica Levi and Coby Sey. Tirzah’s music is all about sensory responses amplified to almost claustrophobic degrees and here, dealing with a period immediately following the birth of her first child and just before her second was born, the singer dives deep into the depths of introspection in a confusing time. 

One of the strengths of Tirzah’s music is how she creates atmospheres and textures to really heighten the resonance of her songs. There’s nothing that jars or raises the tempo too much. It’s a record all about the feeling and the vibe and offers you time and space to really engage and get lost in the little world she creates.
