FOLK - SOUL - JAZZ - AMBIENT POP
“This is the sound of your new favourite band” Simon Sweetman
Ebony Lamb writes with a poetic voice and a vivid, surrealistic intimacy.
The New Zealand singer-songwriter and photographer turns the minutiae of everyday life and the defining memories that stay with us into a rich melange of folk, jazz, soul and ambient pop.
Drawing comparisons to Gillian Welch, Cat Power and Neko Case, Ebony released three critically-acclaimed albums with her former band, Eb & Sparrow, before embarking on a solo career under her own name.
Played and produced with two of New Zealand’s most celebrated modern musicians, Bic Runga and Kody Nielson (Opossom, Silicon, UMO), the album EBONY LAMB is a watershed work from a genuine talent coming into her own. The record’s first single ‘Take My Hands at Night’ is nominated for the 2023 APRA Silver Scroll Award.
Spare, vivid and moving, EBONY LAMB is an album that captures a defining artistic leap. Singing to herself and the listener, she implores us to continue reaching forward without losing sight of what we have and the elements of our lives that truly matter.
