Our Take

Tracey Thorn's latest album, "Solo - Songs And Collaborations," is a delightful journey through the ever-evolving landscape of her musical career. Thorn, known for her work with Everything But The Girl, brings her signature blend of melancholy and wit to this eclectic collection of tracks.

The album kicks off with the hauntingly beautiful "Sister," a collaboration with Corinne Bailey Rae that sets the tone for what's to come. Thorn's ethereal vocals are front and center throughout, weaving tales of love, loss, and everything in between.

One standout track is "Protection," a collaboration with Massive Attack that showcases Thorn's ability to seamlessly blend her voice with electronic beats. The result is a mesmerizing mix of soulful vocals and atmospheric production that will leave you wanting more.

Thorn also shines on the stripped-down ballad "Missing," a solo track that showcases her raw emotion and vulnerability. It's a poignant reminder of Thorn's unmatched talent as a storyteller.

Overall, "Solo - Songs And Collaborations" is a triumph for Thorn, showcasing her ability to adapt and evolve as an artist while staying true to her roots. Whether you're a longtime fan or a newcomer to Thorn's music, this album is a must-listen for anyone craving a dose of musical magic. So sit back, relax, and let Tracey Thorn take you on a journey you won't soon forget.
