Description
Ren Harvieu releases her long-awaited new album Revel In The Drama, via Bella Union. The album is a brilliant, bolder and broader take on her timeless pop classicism, a compelling diary of a struggle with self-belief and a celebration of liberation and survival, seven years after her Top 5 debut album and having overcome a life-threatening injury. Think of Revel In The Drama as Harvieus second debut album; a new defiance against the odds and her willingness to lay herself open to make what she believed was within her is baked into every groove of the record, across every stylistic turn: the giddy pop of Strange Thing, the gothic swoon of Cruel Disguise, the smokey seductiveness of Yes Please through to the stirring torchsong finale My Body She Is album was co-produced by Romeo Stodart and Dave Izumi Lynch, owner of Echo Zoo studio in Eastbourne where recording took place. Harvieus lyrical confidence is evident throughout the album and has you leaning in to absorb line after line. Her voice, soaring and caressing in equal measure, is matched in force by her flirtatious personality. From the albums opening lyric Let me put my paws on you, strange thingthrough to the feminine bite of Curves And Swerves Ive got some curves and some swerves, what you gonna do about it? which crackles with sexual tension and an aching vulnerability.
