A dizzyingly indefinable and innovative debut by the Dallas-born singer-songwriter Olivia Williams, mixing experimental R&B, gospel, neo-soul, spoken word, electronica, cosmic jazz, and pop. Across the 17 tracks there’s a vast range of intimacy, intricacy, sensuality and oddity, from the woozy keyboards and drum’n’ bass rhythms of opener Gardetto, the spoken word and lazy, sexy soul of A Slumber Party?, the jazzy murmurings of Six Weeks, the ambient restlessness of Ghost, all the way to the squelchy, beautiful soul of closing track Glass Shadows. But perhaps the standout, the gorgeous lilting piano and vocals on Wild Animals. A wildly different, sprawling but fascinating artist. Out on Real Life Music.
