CONSISTENTLY INTERESTING SINGER-SONGWRITER VICTORIA HUME HAS RECENTLY HAD A NEW SERIES OF SONGS RELEASED BY HIP SCOTTISH LABEL LOST MAP. THE SEVEN-TRACK CLOSING EP DOCUMENTS A HUGE CHANGE IN HER LIFE; A MOVE FROM LONDON TO LIVE IN SOUTH AFRICA.
The EP was launched at a special showcase gig back in London a couple of weeks ago – and, in the afternoon before the show, Victoria and The Mouth Magazine convened in the living room of her drummer’s flat to record two songs as a special ‘in session’ performance. Both of the songs feature on the EP, but this new edition of The Mouthcast ends with an angular take of SELL EVERYTHING and begins with a beautifully stripped-out version of WILD WINDS. Vic also speaks from her home in Johannesburg about the genesis of the seven songs on the CLOSING EP, and reflects on her 2013 project DELIRIUM (which featured a song cycle with lyrics inspired by her series of interviews with Intensive Care patients)… Buy Victoria’s CLOSING EP direct from Lost Map here…
