Carla Dal Forno - Further Listening Playlist

Carla Dal Forno is a long-time shop favourite so we're delighted she took the time to make us a Further Listening playlist to go alongside her new album, Come Around

On Come Around, Carla Dal Forno grapples with ideas of home, disorder and insomnia in the swift pop structures of her DIY/post-punk forebearers such as Young Marble Giants, Virginia Astley and Broadcast. Come Around embodies a newfound solitude born of/in elemental pop hooks and enlightened songwriting, striking between the melodic simplicity of Anna Domino and YMG and the arrangement hooks of The Cannanes and Movietone, capturing dal Forno at her most welcoming with arms wide open. 

BUY: Carla Dal Forno - Come Around

Love this album. A recent find. It’s hazy, disoriented, plaintive and haunting.

Really been digging this debut from Luster. It’s beautiful and meditative. Haunting vocals, stripped back instrumentation. One to spend some time with.

One from a few years back that I always come back to. Love the percussion and the repeated guitar notes. It puts me in a real trance.

Just a beautiful record with lovely vocals, classical instrumentation and unexpected twists and turns

This music sounds happy and carefree to me. It always puts me in a better mood when I have it on

Love this one. I enjoy the creeping, intimate imagery created by the lyrics and the barely there instrumentation. Soft and gentle and eery.
