2008, Second Motion
Six years, two albums, the highs of critical accolades and the lows of doubt and exhaustion have all led Dublin, Ireland native Gemma Hayes to her third album, Hollow of Morning. And with another roll of the dice, Hayes shows herself to have grown into an incredible songwriter and also a woman who has surveyed her career to date and decided to go her own way, independent in every sense.
Co-produced by long-time cohort and collaborator David Odlum, who worked with Gemma on her Mercury-nominated debut, Night on My Side, Hollow of Morning is a ten-track filigree of melody and subtle harmonic rhythms. It's a sparkling album awash with melody and poignant turns of phrase. An independent flare shot into the night sky that is both searching and illuminating. Guests include: Kevin Shields (My Bloody Valentine) and Paul Noonan (Bell XI).
