ThenbspDreamnbspOfnbspDelphirsquonbspis an ode to motherhood created in LA, Natasharsquos second home, duringnbspthenbspCovid19 pandemic. Itrsquos a sonic archivenbspofnbspa time when Natasha birthed her daughternbspDelphinbspearth side.nbspThenbsprecord weaves together ten song poems, documentingnbspthenbsppolaritynbspofnbspnavigating both an exterior world that was seemingly turning upside down, whilst also experiencingnbspthe profoundlynbsppersonal and transformational early momentsnbspofnbspmotheringnbspDelphi, named afternbspthenbspGreek Oracle,nbspthenbspancient future teller.nbspThenbspmusic became Natasharsquos sanctuary, born outnbspofnbspstolen trips tonbspthenbspstudio, where each track was improvised and completed in a few hours and chronologises her diary likenbspofferings over a periodnbspofnbsptwo yearsnbsp fromnbspldquoThe MidwivesnbspHave Leftrdquonbsp to writing anbspldquoLetter To My Daughterrdquonbspand allnbspthenbspway through tonbspldquoWaking uprdquo,nbspas well as a covernbspofnbspher daughterrsquos favourite song,nbspldquoHomerdquo.Whilenbspthenbspstorytelling behind Bat For Lashesrsquo previous albums have traditionally used otherworldly narratives and female lead characters e.g. lsquoLaurarsquo, lsquoDanielrsquo and lsquoThenbspBridersquo, fornbspthenbspfirst time,nbsplsquoThenbspDreamnbspOfnbspDelphirsquo is about Natasharsquos personal experiencenbspofnbspthe magicalnbspand sometimes melancholy intimacynbspofnbspearly motherhood. This record creates a more private formnbspofnbsp mythology aroundnbspthenbspmusic than her previous work.nbsplsquoThenbspDreamnbspOfnbspDelphirsquonbsptouches on morenbspofnbspan instrumental ldquoBat For Lashesrdquo world, and shows Natasha to be both a confident composer and craftswomannbspofnbspintimate landscapes. Whilenbspthenbspmusic creates a more womblike, ambient space fornbspthenbsplistener, it still leaves ample room for her signaturenbsp dreamnbsppop songwriting to vibrate through. Natasha has worked with Brad Oberhofer, Mary Lattimore and Jack Falby on this record.
