On her second EP, Bored of the Circus, the London-based singer-songwriter continues refining her craft, pairing lyrics that acutely describe mental illness with music that updates the idea of “the perfect pop song” for the 21st century—although it does so by reaching back into music’s past.
The five tracks on Bored of the Circus possess an out-of-time quality that’s heightened by the contrast between her quivering lead vocal and the hovering choirs behind it.
