New Music! Full Bloom All Power
My new single is out!
~ ye olde whirlwind of emotions yet again ~
Full Bloom came out on Friday and me and Romeo danced around the kitchen.
The sun was out and I spent alot of the day in the garden. I was happy mostly, relived to have everything finally finished, the production of the track was a beast, as was the video, and it gave me a great sense of achievement to have it out, finished, DUN.
but the background static of anxiety was there too of course. Now what? Whats going to happen to my song? Do people like it? Will anything happen with it or will it just fade into obscurity very very quickly?
I don't have control over so many of these anxiety inducing questions that swirl around.
What I can control is what I'm focusing on. My new music, being true to myself and my artistic vision, feeding the curiosity to keep learning, becoming a better musician. Of course I want more eyes and ears on my music, but I feel like, at some point that will happen naturally. I believe what I'm doing is beautiful and the feedback from the song has been really encouraging.
For the next month or so (until the next song comes out) I'm going to be sharing my creative processes behind Full Bloom, spotlighting the different instruments I played and the parts I came up with, a live version of the song, how we made the video and behind the scenes madness, and loads of other stuff. I quite enjoy this part. if theres anything you'd like to know in particular about Full Bloom please don't hesitate to ask. i will be sharing patreon only content too which is a wonderful little community of ‘renettes’ and I post often you can check it out here patreon
~🥀~In my mind when I was writing this, I was thinking of two lovers in 1950's northern England, who, for some reason, cannot be seen to be together. they climb over the railings at night and enter the deepest moors, to love each other, to drink each other, and afterwards, to part ways without a backwards glance...I was thinking about the inner world, all the unsaid, all the secrets.. And for her, to be free in this way, to express her desire in it's most wild and primal, brings a supernatural charge to the nature around her, almost as though Mother Nature herself is awakening, and with each visit to the moors her powers grow.. until...until....
TBC....
As I did with Black Wig, I'll be making 20 one of a kind lyric sheets. which means every single one will be different, written lovingly in my favourite fountain pen on ivory paper with a unique drawing from me to you.

🎑Full Bloom All Power 🎑
You lifted me carefully
Over the pointed railings
As the moors behind us
Fed
Parted ways without a second glance
This is not a mirroring romance
And yet,
I taste you all the way home
In Silhouette like the reaching tree
Oh corkscrew willow climb for me
My naked back
A map
Your fingers trace the lightening of my scars
Intertwined inside the shadow of your arms
Full Bloom, All Power
You pulled away like the listening breeze
To hear me dancing wildly in the weeds
He loves me, he loves the knots in my hair
He pulls the petals but is careful not to tear
Howling under the moons watchful stare
So starved of vibrance
A kind of deep, violet violence
Is stretching through the roots
Of my heart
Full Bloom, All Power
You lifted me carefully
Over the pointed railings
As the moors behind us
Bled
I taste you all the way home..
As ever, thank you for the love, I read the comments on my social media and I really feel so grateful to have such an enthusiastic group of people who I feel really get me, support what I'm trying to do and encourage my creative intuitions and eccentricities. endless luv. Ren xxxx
