Cassandra Jenkins + LYLO

Cassandra Jenkins
After her acclaimed album An Overview on Phenomenal Nature Cassandra Jenkins returns on July 12 with her new and third album My Light, My Destroyer.

At the center of the guitar-driven indie rock, new-age, sophistipop and jazz-inspired album is Jenkins' curiosity about the quarks and quasars that make up her universe, as she blends field recordings with poetic lyricism that is by turns allusive, humorous, harrowing and confessional – an alchemical gesture that further deepens the richness of My Light, My Destroyer's 13 songs.

LYLO
Scottish trio LYLO emerged from a six-year hiatus this year with their sensational new album Thoughts of Never, a pristine body of work built on foundations of vulnerability and cinematic pop sensibilities, released on Glasgow label El Rancho Records.

Present in the album are topics of emotional communication, melancholy in metropolis and the willingness to (re)connect, which are all explored through a wonky Japanese inspired pop soundscape, with new and obvious nods to R&B soul intertwined with ambient pads. The album is littered with an abundance of influences from musicians and movies alike, stretching from names such as Sade, The Blue Nile, Pet Shop Boys, Eddie Chacon to "The Great Beauty" (2013) and "Hana-Bi" (1997).
