Squirrel Flower - Planet (i) (Blood Orange Vinyl)

CAROLINE DISTRIBUTION OTHER - RC435LP

Includes Digital Download

Squirrel Flower's heart-rending sophomore album Planet (i), following her 2020 debut I Was Born Swimming, is exactly that.

A singular planet, a world entirely of artist Ella Williams' making. The title came first to her as a joke: it's her made-up name for the new planet people will inevitably settle and destroy after leaving Earth, as well as the universe imagined within her music.

"Planet (i) is my body and mind," Williams says, "and it's the physical and emotional world of our planet. It's both."

Buoyed by her steadfast vision and propelled by her burning comet of a voice, the record is a love letter to disaster in every form imaginable. Tornadoes, flooding, gaslighting assholes, cars on fire-these songs fully embrace a planet in ruin. As Williams rides from melancholy to jubilance to complete emotional devastation over the course of twelve songs, she carves out a future for herself and those she loves.

Planet (i), out on Polyvinyl, Full Time Hobby and Humblebrag Records, is at once a refuge, an act of self-healing, and a musical reflection of Squirrel Flower's inner and outer worlds.
