Lidell, Jamie - Places of Unknowing (Vinyl)
Jamie Lidell - Places of Unknowing (Vinyl)
Jamie Lidell is unmasking. Since relocating to Nashville and starting a family, Jamie experienced isolation and introspection. During the COVID lockdown Jamie's introspection stepped up a notch, and a strange need for new expression took hold. Discovering his neighbours were esteemed classical musicians - ones he had never met outside the lockdown times as they were always on tour – Jamie took it on himself to learn piano for the first time, and began recording some lyrics written by his wife Lindsey. Singing someone else's words – albeit someone he felt a deep responsibility to – and having an entirely new musical palette to draw from he found immensely refreshing. The results are gripping: heavily inspired by Davids Sylvian and Bowie, on Places of Unknowing, Jamie explores dark places, making revisiting some of the shadows he cavorted through with Super_Collider, but with new confidence and clarity. His first album in nearly a decade, this is a beautiful departure from anything he has ever done before.
