Description
On the debut album Leave No Shadow, Chrysanths’ Emily Scott crafts a vivid technicolour world, branching out from her work with the band Modern Studies. This album is both elegiac and celebratory, featuring a swirling orchestra of Scotland’s top - notch strings at its heart, seamlessly woven together by Scott’s effortless vocals. Recorded in Scotland with Emily Scott in the producer’s seat, Leave No Shadow sees the artist exploring new musical ground distinct from her Glasgow - based band Modern Studies. The standout sonic elements are Scott’s swirling, immersive string arrangements. With Susan Bear’s thoughtful bass guitar and Owen Curtis Williams’s delicate drums, the album has a luxurious sound, reminiscent of Jean Claude Vannier’s late 60s studio work or Fontana - era Scott Walker. Chrysanths, or Chrysanthemums, symbolize death and mourning in the West. While there’s an underlying sadness in Emily Scott’s work on this album, her complexity and deft touch also suggest renewal. In tarot, Death represents personal growth and rebirth, and the album Leave No Shadow captures these ideas, celebrating the present and the small joys of life. Chrysanths' fluid storytelling stirs up wave after wave of emotion and auditory pleasure, being sometimes fierce, often gentle, and always in the here and now. Tracklist: 1. Snow 2. Rising 3.
