There is something especially transporting about Emma Russack's music. The lyrics are filled with recollections, reflections, and poetic detail. And the subtle folk-inflected arrangements - sometimes sparse and elsewhere rich in texture - all evoke a state of mind or state of being. Place, feeling, memory, the interior and exterior life are captured and conveyed; sometimes moments, sometimes days, years or even longer chapters are condensed and felt within the span of a song.
