{"product_id":"stonechild","title":"Stonechild","description":"\u003cp\u003eA culmination of life and musical experience, uncompromising in its vision, Stonechild, the new studio album from Jesca Hoop is a self-described “compassion project.” Released on Memphis Industries, \u003ci\u003eStonechild\u003c\/i\u003e is Hoop refined and defined. Beautiful, subtle and stark, her fifth album, the follow up to 2017’s highly acclaimed \u003ci\u003eMemories Are Now\u003c\/i\u003e, is her best yet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDespite being a long-term resident of Manchester, Hoop, has until now, returned to her native California to record. This timeround however, “it was” according to Hoop “time to step out of my comfort zone, my safe place”, venturing south to Bristol to team up with producer John Parish (PJ Harvey, Aldous Harding,This is the Kit). Parish’s minimal and purist approach helpedclarify Hoop in her ideas and subtly yet effectively realigning her sound. The simplified arrangements draw focus to the fundamental sophistication of the songs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhile Hoop’s trademark finger-plucked guitar and ethereal textures remain, the songs and their presentation are ever more direct. \u003ci\u003eStonechild\u003c\/i\u003e ventures further into fresh territory with other voices joining the narrative, with Kate Stables (aka This is the Kit) Rozi Plain and Lucius singing the choruses and expanding the sensual depth of the sonic bloom.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Memphis Industries","offers":[{"title":"White | LP","offer_id":50434102034763,"sku":"1062030","price":19.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"LP","offer_id":50434100363595,"sku":"1062029","price":19.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":50434101444939,"sku":"1062028","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/f6e6c61c-a3f8-49b5-8071-91e9914e86a6_thumbnail_4096.png?v=1726885739","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/products\/stonechild","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
