Our Take

Lisa Knapp's "Till April Is Dead - A Garland" is a delightful, whimsical journey through the changing seasons. Released as part of Record Store Day 2018, this album showcases Knapp's unique blend of traditional folk sounds with a modern twist.

From the opening track "Staines Morris" to the hauntingly beautiful "First Signs of Spring," Knapp's ethereal vocals transport listeners to a world of magic and mysticism. Each song is like a tiny vignette, painting vivid images of blooming flowers, fluttering birds, and the promise of warmer days ahead.

The instrumentation on this album is truly a standout, with lush layers of strings, flutes, and other folk instruments creating a rich tapestry of sound. Knapp's intricate arrangements and attention to detail make each track feel like a mini-orchestral masterpiece.

One of the highlights of "Till April Is Dead - A Garland" is the mesmerising title track, a haunting ballad that captures the melancholy beauty of the changing seasons. Knapp's poetic lyrics and haunting melodies linger long after the song has ended, leaving a bittersweet taste in the listener's mouth.
