Fenne Lily - Big Picture

A gorgeous and gripping portrait of Fenne Lily’s last two years, ‘Big Picture’ was pieced together in an effort to self-soothe. Tracked live in co-producer Brad Cook (Snail Mail, Waxahatchee, Whitney, Big Red Machine and more)’s North Carolina studio, the album delineates the phases of love and becomes a map of comfort vs claustrophobia. Though its creation took place amid personal and global turmoil, the ruminative yet candid ‘Big Picture’ is Fenne’s most cohesive, resolute work to date, both lyrically and sonically. “This isn’t a sad album - it’s about as uplifting as my way of doing things will allow,” she says. “These songs explore worry and doubt and letting go, but those themes are framed brightly.” With confidence and quiet strength, each track provides an insight into Fenne’s ever-changing view of love and, ultimately, its redefinition - love as a process, not something to be lost and found.
