A sweet, breezy and joyous helping of indie pop from SOAK's upcoming second album 'Grim Town' The Northern Irish songwriter Bridie Monds-Watson, a.k.a. SOAK, is releasing the LP on April 26th through Rough Trade Records.Subjects include “long-distance love, depression, divorce, and social anxiety to the changing modern landscape (sexually, politically, emotionally)" and "a dystopia that I’ve created in my brain: me on the inside, processed into a pretend location” explains Watson.
"The way I could wrap my head around a lot of what I was going through was to make it feel like something quite physical and real. Once I had the idea of the album being an actual location, exploring the dynamics of this town and what it would look or sound like felt like the right way to give my mental state a personality.”
SOAK plays a UK tour in May.
