Ahead of her debut headline tour in early 2022, rising Hurworth-on-Tees soloistĀ Jodie NicholsonĀ has unveiled a spine tingling live session of her singleĀ āSecond SunāĀ ā filmed by Jodie Canwell at The Old Church Studio, Northumberland.
Taking her cues from artists including Daughter, Warpaint, Lucy Rose, Bombay Bicycle Club, Pink Floyd and Laura Marling and her Dadās love of prog rock, Nicholson subtly blurs the lines of genre expectations with warm soundscapes of indie, electro and folk-pop ā with her ethereal vocals remaining constant over a diverse, explorative ground.Ā
Nicholsonās songwriting explores what it means to feel alone in a familiar world, cradling vulnerability and loss with aching keys, pensive lyrics, mellow electronics and atmospherics from everyday, solitary moments.Ā
In the intimate new session of āSecond Sunā, Jodie reminds herself that sometimes you need to have faith in things getting better. āItās one of those songs thatās shifted meaning as timeās gone by,ā she tells, āthough it began as a very personal, vulnerable thing, I think it resonates with a lot of people and serves as a big connector whenever I play it live. Itās good to be hopeful. Thereās always something really special to me about sharing vulnerable music in churches; big, wide open spaces where the sound travels for what feels like miles. The Old Church Studio is such a beautiful space and Iāve quietly been a fan of Jodie Canwellās work ever since I first saw it. This felt like the perfect space and opportunity to create something beautiful together. I hope people love it as much as we do.ā
