Allo Darlin’ - Bright Nights Allo Darlin’

The first new material in a decade from the Anglo-Australian indiepop quartet, this album marks the return of their smart, beautiful pop music, with lyrics that resonate with experience and melodies that chime, echo and soar. 'Bright Nights' follows the emotional tides of the preceding ten years: “It’s an album from the heart, dealing with themes of love, birth and death, which are things we reflect more on than we did when we made our first album. I would hope that the album sounds timeless and joyous, at other times reflective and emotional” says songwriter and vocalist Elizabeth Morris Innset. Drawing inspiration from a mix of classic pop, folk and country, 'Bright Nights' picks up where Allo Darlin’ left off with the warmth of 2014’s 'We Come From The Same Place', and recalls the confident and sophisticated sound of their second album, Europe. “When I listen to it I think of the desert, but I can see the sea. The sweet sounds of summer’s bright nights in the Northern hemisphere, but an awareness that winter will one day return”.
