Florist is back and I couldn’t be more stoked. The music carries the same frail beauty as before, meandering through the philosophical and the day-to-day ennui, only this time around its somehow managed to gain even more depth, wrapping itself in an added layer of emotion and meaning. Having myself experienced the overwhelming loss of losing a parent a too soon, this song and the accompanying video have even more meaning and immediately found a special place within my heart. Within this track Emily is able to translate the elusive heaviness of loss into something tangible. However, she makes it poetic rather than explicit, and then rounds out the edges with a soundscape that both cocoons and haunts. It’s an intimate beauty, like stumbling into your own headspace through someone else’s door. So go ahead and stumble away.
