Description
In the space of just one EP and two singles, the Bristol-based 24-year-old singer-songwriter Stevie Parker has established a reputation as a vital new talent. Sonically, The Cure stands out because of Parkers raw talent: her smoky vocals (at times raspy, at times quite delicate) never fail to paint an evocative picture of lost love, of longing, of the melancholic beauty of just living. Production-wise, pulsing synths (think: The xx) provide an atmospheric yet sleek backdrop. Under the guidance of her mentor, Rough Trade Records co-owner Jeannette Lee, Parker teamed up with the Grammy Award-winning Jimmy Hogarth to produce the album, with David Wrench (The xxs I See You, FKA twigs, Caribou, Floating Points) on mixing duties. Warpaints Stella Mozgawa and Polar Bears Seb Rochford also contributed drums.
