Our Take

Allison Russell's debut solo album, "Outside Child," is a raw and deeply personal journey through the highs and lows of her life. From the hauntingly beautiful vocals to the soul-stirring lyrics, Russell captivates her audience from the very first track.

The album begins with the brooding "Montreal," a poignant reflection on Russell's troubled childhood and her journey towards self-acceptance. The haunting melodies and emotive storytelling set the tone for the rest of the record, as Russell delves into themes of loss, identity, and resilience.

Tracks like "Persephone" and "Nightflyer" showcase Russell's versatility as a musician, blending elements of folk, blues, and soul to create a sound that is uniquely her own. The haunting harmonies and powerful instrumentals create a rich tapestry of sound that draws the listener in and refuses to let go.

As the album progresses, Russell's vulnerability and strength shine through, culminating in the powerful closer, "Joyful Motherfuckers." This anthemic track is a triumphant celebration of self-love and empowerment, with Russell's soaring vocals serving as a rallying cry for anyone who has ever felt unseen or unheard.

Overall, "Outside Child" is a stunning debut from an artist who is unapologetically herself. Russell's honesty and authenticity shine through in every note, making this album a must-listen for anyone in search of music that is as powerful as it is profound.
