Says Shortall “I only believe in making music that’s honest and comes from me,” Shortall says. “In the last six months a lot of my life has changed, my parents moved out of our family home and that led to lots of old family photos being discovered and me reflecting on memories, I kept thinking about my younger self and the experiences I couldn’t remember anymore. The record became dedicated to memory, nostalgia and being grateful for what I have, even if as I get older the past becomes unreliable. It produced a sound that’s lighthearted and jumps around – it’s an expression of me feeling free to prioritise the moment, no matter what it brings.”
