Old-school European glamour emanates from this excellent album by Austrian-Iranian pop singer Sofie Royer, the stuff of chilled rose on an Antibes balcony or discos in the Rimini summertime, away from the crassness of influencers and classlessness of fame.
With her second album Harlequin, which mooched elegantly through yacht rock, new wave, and untrendy 70s chansons, Royer released one of the gems of 2022.
Royer gets swept up in existential reveries about the role of the artist and the power struggles of modern dating, dispensing droll pearls of wisdom.
Musically, her core new wave sound hits harder than before, resulting in her most immediate and commercial songwriting yet.
