Gordi has announced details of her debut album, ‘Reservoir’.
Due for release on 25th August through Jagjaguwar, it’s preceded by the singles ‘Heaven I Know’ and ‘On My Side’, the latter of which you can hear below.
The album was written by Gordi and co-produced alongside Tim Anderson (Solange/Banks), Ali Chant (Perfume Genius/PJ Harvey) and Alex Somers (Sigur Ros).
“The name ‘Reservoir’, it’s that thing that you can’t describe, that space that anxious people would probably live their life in,” she explains.
“It’s actually an expression my friend and I use. If I’m really down one day, I’ll say, ‘Oh I’m a bit in the reservoir today’. You’re mulling everything over, and you’re sitting in all these thoughts and feelings.
“In order to be able to write a song I need to go to that place, but I couldn’t live a functional life if I spent all my time in there.”
