User Album Review
These days, the fate of the world seems to depend on how much we care about each other. Gun violence, abortion rights, mental health awareness—everything comes back to whether or not we can collectively pause and listen. Back in 2017, versatile balladeer Jesca Hoop emerged reborn from her hiatus, like a butterfly that bursts free from its chrysalis; instead of brooding spider-like over gothic fantasies, Memories Are Now unravelled as a modern folk story about finding truth, spirit, and love in these fractured and digitized times. Now that Hoop has found her wings, she takes flight on Stonechild, a stoic journey to shed light on the heavy burdens that we lock within ourselves. Time and again, she shows us ever so gently what we all need to hear—the strands that isolate us can also connect us together.
In the end, Hoop offers her own answer: the only way to move on in the present is to slough off the anchors of the past. "Throw the baby out with the bath," goes the chorus in the elegant "Death Row"; the sea-dwelling widow in "Passages End" casts her newborn into the ocean. The pages of Stonechild sometimes read like wives' tales and folklore, but the morals found within should resonate with any modern wanderer. And, after all, Hoop exemplifies her own advice: she's ascended yet again from the old shadows, with an ear to the ground and eyes scanning ever upward.
