In 2021 she releases Plant, a powerful album which the press calls hypnotic, a kind of musical film you can lose yourself in. With timeless lyrics like ‘Your Ancestor’, she homes in on the way we, as people, inhabit the Earth, while also challenging us to do some real soul-searching: ‘through my music I hope to conjure up a world in which people are able to listen to themselves more closely.’
After two successful tours along the theatres she now heads for clubs and festivals: The Plant Bloom Sessions is a spell-binding journey of stirring beats, surreal soundscapes and spoken word, in which she also invites other artists like Ragazze Quartet, one of the most fresh and leading string quartets of the moment.
