The album is an account of one year of her life, good and bad, happy or sad. ‘With The Dawn’ is a more intimate and reflective album than before. Working with producer Ben Seal, the arrangements are more instinctive, more reactive, as befits the mind-set that informed the lyrics. Vivid brass gives way to lonesome piano; choral voices peal; banjos emerge out of beats and blips. Elements of the initial demos, sometimes recorded into a phone as the thoughts occurred, have been kept giving With The Dawn its striking immediacy. These are songs written on the road, full of that sense of displacement, longing and contemplation that all itinerant musicians know. On ‘With The Dawn’, Bella Hardy’s soaring kite-like voice is married to lyrics that poetically question everything she’s seen and done up till now; letting go of expectations, both other people’s and her own. But with closing lullaby And We Begin there’s a light at the end… or rather the beginning. Only one song didn’t spring directly from Bella’s year of touring and tumult. ‘Jolly Good Luck To The Girl That Loves A Soldier’ was commissioned by ‘Songs For The Voiceless’, a project which gathered the country’s best folk artists to sing some of the lesser known stories of World War I. “Rare class and exceptional emotional depth” – Mojo “An aura of sophistication that will win over listeners who never set foot in a folk club” – The Sunday Times “A fine, no-nonsense interpreter of traditional music and an excellent songwriter” – The Guardian “One of the best songwriters of her generation” – fRoots “A natural ability to fashion catchy pop hooks in the forge of big, doom-laden folk songs” – Songlines Artist Bella Hardy Genre Folk Label Noe Records Buying Options 1LP Gatefold Sleeve Format 1LP , Gatefold Sleeve Condition New Country United Kingdom Track Listings The Only Thing To Do First Light of the Morning The Darkening of the Day Jolly Good Luck to the Girl That Loves a Soldier You Don't Have To Change (But You Have To Choose) Another Whisky Song Oh!
