Description
Irish-born, and now Glasgow based singer-songwriter Martha Ffion announces new album entitled 'Sunday Bestâ€™ which will be released on Turnstile in early 2018. To celebrate the news Martha Ffion has also released a track from the album - the wonderful â€˜We Make Doâ€™. Initially breaking through with a â€˜postcard singleâ€™ on Scotlandâ€™s flourishing Lost Map label, Ffionâ€™s reputation soared with last yearâ€™s â€˜Tripâ€™ EP, that was released by Turnstile Music (Cate Le Bon, Gruff Rhys, Charlotte Church, Emmy the Great etc.) and championed by GoldFlakePaint for its â€œbeautifully melodic swayâ€�. Written entirely in Glasgow since her move from a distinct Catholic upbringing in smalltown Ireland, and recorded with her full live band by Jamie Savage at Glasgowâ€™s Chem 19 Studio (King Creosote, The Twilight Sad, Emma Pollock), Ffionâ€™s debut album spans the first songs she properly wrote to her most recent compositions, and is by far her most adventurous and accomplished work to-date, the lush instrumentation bringing her detailed lyrical vision to life through a series of gleaming guitar-pop songs that drift between soft-centred balladry and something altogether more cutting and forceful. Recalling the work of Sharon Van Etten and Jenny Lewis, while still sounding thrillingly distinct, â€˜Sunday Bestâ€™ is a formidable coming-of-age record, and one that stands as a truly accomplished debut.
