I Conjure Series

On the follow-up to her much-lauded debut "Sweet Heart Fever," Scout Niblett has pretty much wiped the slate clean. A collection of songs that are minimal in their structure and arrangement, but complex in their passion of execution, "I Conjure Series" is a raw and bold excursion into the poetic universe of a vagabond of the new world. Comprised of seven songs on which she performs all the instruments (four are drums & vocals songs, two are guitar and vocals, and one is vocals-only), this mini-album was recorded live in Glasgow, Scotland at Chem19 Studios, just a train ride from Ms. Niblett's hometown of Nottingham, England. A new drummer, Scout Niblett comes from the Half Japanese school of music-making, one that heralds the amateur's capacity for imaginative experience. The result is a record that sounds like it takes as much from Elizabeth Cotten as it does Huggy Bear. "I Conjure Series" is a playful record, but also a very serious one. Songs are dressed innocently, but bear heavy emotional tidings.
