The meeting of an Academy Award- nominated actress and singer, and a Brit Award-winning producer and musician, feels like the tale of two distant stars coming together and forming their own constellation. It all started with a FaceTime call from Butler’s North London kitchen to Buckley’s mountaintop residence in County Kerry, with their friendship growing from an unlikely shared love of Killarney and the small island of Valentia where Butler would go on holiday as a boy. A mutual friend had a feeling they might spark. Buckley had been listening to Old Wow by Sam Lee, produced by Bernard, in the downtime between rehearsals for the National Theatre’s televised production of Romeo and Juliet. Butler had seen Jessie perform a song on an American chat show in promotion of 2018’s Wild Rose. “I remember clocking just how much character there was in her voice and how freely she expressed it,” recalls Bernard. If the project grew from a shared love and deep ancestral attachment to Ireland – Butler’s parents come from Dun Laoghaire, one of the coastal towns of Dublin Bay – then these songs swoop out from the Emerald Isle’s west coast, taking home Appalachian blues and delicate modal jazz from across the Atlantic, and taking in the bullfighting arenas of Andalusia along the way. The first song the pair wrote together, ‘The Eagle and the Dove’ – named after a book by the interwar proto-feminist writer Vita Sackville-West – set the tone for the project, and also set in motion a sense of adventure that permeates For All Our Days That Tear The Heart. Invoking the passionate theatre of flamenco, augmented by Jessie’s sumptuous, soaring vocals, the pair recorded the intuitive dance moves of Juana Jimenez with a microphone placed on the floor of the Birchanger Village Hall in Essex of all places. There’s a physicality and a flow to the songs that somehow bear testament to the manner in which Jessie and Bernard threw themselves into making the album. Amid the constant exchange of ideas, songs fomented at speed. The sublime ‘20 Years A Growing’ takes its title from Maurice O’Sullivan’s celebrated 1933 account of life in Great Blasket Island off the coast of County Kerry. The more personal, piano-led ‘Seven Red Rose Tattoos’, captures the essence of loss and longing, with Jessie’s vocal lines a counterpoint to Byron Wallen’s doleful, muted trumpet: “I wanted it to be like a conversation with the ghosts of my thoughts,” says Buckley. The dynamic title track is built around words that Jessie had written during a low period whilst in Chicago filming Fargo, with her extraordinary vocal blazing an emotional vapour trail through Bernard’s chamber-folk arrangement. And the pair draw inspiration from the ensemble work of seminal jazz-folk innovators Pentangle on songs like ‘I’ve Got A Feeling’ and ‘Sweet Child’, as the rhythm section of Misha Mullov-Abbado and Chris Vatalaro effectively converse with Jessie’s bewitching vocals. “Right now, I feel like I’ll never make another album again,” says Jessie, “because I can’t imagine another album happening the way this one did. It’s amazing that it even happened once. This obscure, organic, odd little thing that just found us.” For All Our Days That Tear The Heart is a remarkable work of windswept beauty and catharsis, and given that it seemed to come out of nowhere, it also feels like a gift. “More than anything, I wanted it to be joyous – properly joyous – because there is such joy in Jessie, there really is,” says Bernard. “In spite of the darkness and the intensity in these songs, I’m just flying when I listen back to them.” Artist Jessie Buckley & Bernard Butler Genre Rock And Pop Label EMI Buying Options 2LP Gatefold Sleeve Format 2LP , Gatefold Sleeve Condition New Country UK Track Listings 01 - The Eagle & The Dove 02 - For All Our Days That Tear The Heart 03 - 20 Years A-Growing 04 - Babylon Days 05 - Seven Red Rose Tattoos 06 - Footnotes On The Map 07 - We’ve Run The Distance 08 - We Haven’t Spoke About The Weather 09 - Beautiful Regret 10 - I Cried Your Tears 11 - Shallow The Water 12 - Catch The Dust Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Rock And Pop Nearly New View Product Quick View Rick Wakeman Return To The Centre Of The Earth Progressive | EMI Classics | 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 17th January 2024 £35.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Rick Wakeman Return To The Centre Of The Earth £35.00 Genre: Progressive Label: EMI Classics SKU: nn279177 Formats: 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 17th January 2024 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Santana 3 Rock And Pop | Mobile Fidelity Silver Label | 1LP Released 11th February 2014 £37.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Santana 3 £37.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Mobile Fidelity Silver Label SKU: MFSLP1039 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 11th February 2014 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Waco Brothers & Paul Burch Great Chicago Fire Americana / Country | Bloodshot | 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 4th May 2012 £16.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Waco Brothers & Paul Burch Great Chicago Fire £16.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Bloodshot SKU: BS120LP Formats: 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 4th May 2012 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Molly Sarle Karaoke Angel Rock And Pop | Partisan Records | 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve, Includes Download Code Released 20th September 2019 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Molly Sarle Karaoke Angel £19.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Partisan Records SKU: PTKF2163-1 Formats: 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve, Includes Download Code Released Date: 20th September 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Hello Forever Whatever It Is Rock And Pop | Rough Trade | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl, Includes 7" Released 2nd October 2020 £19.00 - £23.00 Select options Hello Forever Whatever It Is £19.00 - £23.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Rough Trade Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl, Includes 7" Released Date: 2nd October 2020 Read More Select options View Product Quick View Billy Joel The Stranger Rock And Pop | Sony | 1LP Released 5th April 2024 £23.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Billy Joel The Stranger £23.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Sony SKU: 19075939201 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 5th April 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Grateful Dead Blues For Allah Rock And Pop | Rhino | 1LP Released 12th October 2018 £18.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Grateful Dead Blues For Allah £18.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Rhino SKU: 0081227932091 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 12th October 2018 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Peter Buck Warzone Earth Rock And Pop | Mississippi Records | 1LP Released 2nd October 2015 £17.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Peter Buck Warzone Earth £17.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Mississippi Records SKU: MRP086LP Formats: 1LP Released Date: 2nd October 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Mike Bloomfield/Al Kooper Live Adventures of (1969) Blues | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 2LP Released 16th February 2024 £42.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Mike Bloomfield/Al Kooper Live Adventures of (1969) £42.00 Genre: Blues Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP1620C Formats: 180g, 2LP Released Date: 16th February 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Dead Can Dance Spleen and Ideal Rock And Pop | Vinyl 180 | 1LP Released 1st May 2009 £24.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Dead Can Dance Spleen and Ideal £24.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Vinyl 180 SKU: VIN180LP007 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 1st May 2009 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Rock And Pop Start again
