Woods Broderick, Heather: Invitation (Coloured Vinyl LP)
Heather Woods Broderick is Sharon Van Etten’s longtime collaborator and band member. Since the release of her last album, Heather has toured with Alela Diane and Lisa Hannigan and has opened twice for The War On Drugs. Invitation features vocals and synth contributions from Peter Broderick.
Invitation was conceived on the Oregon coast, an outlier among American landscapes, where vast stretches of empty beach are decorated with silver driftwood and towering pines. It is here among the dunes, tide pools and colossal rock formations that Heather spent her childhood summer day-trips. And it is here that she returned as an adult to construct her newest LP, an album of dreamy baroque-pop that swells and whispers with grand string arrangements, intimately descriptive lyrics, and impassioned songcraft built around earnest piano melodies, painting a lifelike picture of the locale in which it was written.
