Aoife Nessa Frances

Land of No Junction

[Basin Rock]

The introductory long player from Dublin-based psychedelic chanteuse Aoife Neassa Frances is a debut of rare confidence.

Frances has surrounded herself with an enviable coterie of players who furnish Land of No Junction with a lush, dually delicate and dynamic sonic palette that subtly shifts from moment to moment.

As expansive and rich as the backing may be – calling to mind, as it does, some coalescence of Broadcast, Angel Olsen and even Serge Gainsbourg – the troupe never loses sight of their secret weapon; Frances own mesmerically dulcet vocals.
