Fantastic new review of 'Starlings & Crows' at Italy's music site Ondarock

'In truth I find it hard to call Chloë March's work undervalued, because in this case we are faced with a real neglect on the part of critics and audiences... March's evanescent and refined chamber-pop would not go unnoticed if it were published in the name of more famous artists (for example, Kate Bush or David Sylvian)... The chamber-folk and dream-pop creations are kissed by an unusual beauty...'

Hidden Shoal and Powderkeg Records are delighted to announce the release of 'Starlings & Crows' the stunning new album by English ambient-pop artist Chloë March

Out on Hidden Shoal and Powderkeg Records 23/10/2020

For her fifth album, March drew inspiration from her early childhood in the Warwickshire countryside, nineteenth-century nature poet John Clare, and Lewis Carroll’s fantastical Alice Through the Looking Glass. Throughout the album there’s a palpable sense of wonder at the natural world, shot through with a deep concern for nature’s vulnerability. 'Starlings & Crows' resonates with notions of home on a macro and micro level. 

 

First single 'To A Place' is an elegant waltz built around swooning strings and piano. 'Landing 1969' sounds as astral as its subject matter would suggest, pulsing at the same tempo as Buzz Aldrin’s heart-rate as Apollo 11 left earth. 'Remember That Sky' is achingly emotive, showcasing March’s innate talent for creating an atmosphere of intimacy without compromising compositional depth. Despite running to a succinct 38 minutes, 'Starlings & Crows' is lush and expansive, while distilled to its crystalline essence.

PRESS RELEASE

'All Things Good', the third single to be taken from 'Starlings & Crows' is a delicate and evocative ballad, led by a vulnerable yet strongly flowing melodic vocal over gently propulsive piano.

Read Chloë's Blog about the origins of the song and how it connects to a song on her previous album 'Blood-Red Spark' here

'Remember That Sky', the second single released from 'Starlings & Crows' is shimmering and smoky, with a dark, velvety vocal tracing a melodic line over drifting and evocative lush synths. Achingly emotive, it showcases March’s innate talent for creating an atmosphere of intimacy without compromising compositional depth. Free Download at Bandcamp

'To A Place', the first single from 'Starlings & Crows' is an elegant waltz built around swooning strings and piano. A bittersweet song of missing a loved one, of falling into a place of memory and imagination. Featuring subtle broken trumpets and beautiful descending vocal lines it's a song of beauty, disquiet and longing.

“One of those one-in-a-million voices

Luminous, sensual, seductive...

her voice is the key that unlocks an intimate soundworld...

Ravishing”
