Constellation (Vinyl LP)

Manchester songwriter Caoilfhionn Rose returns to enchant and enrapture with her third album for Gondwana Records, Constellation. Inspired by "her wonder at nature’s beauty, her love of music in all its diversity, and her belief in the restorative powers that both afford in the troubled post-COVID world", the album finds its roots in folk, jazz, and the songwriter supremes who came before her. Wrap all this up in a blanket of magic, soak in some synths, samples, and sax, and you've got a rather special new album on your hands from a talented songwriter you need in your life. - Flying Out

With her third Gondwana album, ‘Constellation’, Caoilfhionn Rose has come of age as an artist, digging deep to find experimental new ways of expressing her wonder at nature’s beauty, her love of music in all its diversity, and her belief in the restorative powers that both afford in the troubled post-COVID world.

The ten tracks on ‘Constellation’ feel rooted in a knowledge of folk, jazz and all the twentieth century’s classic tunesmiths, and yet they seem to create a magical, otherworldly space of her own imagining, blending Caoilfhionn’s core piano with synths, and pitting a live rhythm section and saxophone embellishments against ambient samples and future-facing production techniques.
