Wales-raised, London-based artist The Anchoress gives us a taste of her forthcoming EP One For Sorrow with the title track and video, featuring an array of symbol-heavy vintage vignettes.
The video is also in anticipation of her 2015 debut album, Confessions Of A Romance Novelist. One For Sorrow EP arrives earlier with a 3 November release via Hiraeth/PIAS, replete with options of a limited edition 12" vinyl and a special edition CD with romance novel.
Speaking of her debut album, which has been two years in the making, Davies said: “This album has been made on a wing and a prayer, lots of favours, one car crash, one death, one broken hand, and a lot of patience on so many parts. Stir in 3 jobs, 4 studios, 1 arrest, 3 pianos, 40 songs and 1 very patient engineer...and you get some way to understanding what a long road it has been.”
