The keen reader might remember British songstress Kully Bath from a feature we published back in 2023, celebrating ‘Born To Be Brave’ as “a slice of goodness, warmth and comfort at a time when the world is in turmoil”. Fast forward to today, and that immediacy and urgency haven’t changed, with Bath still using her art to describe the world around her as well as her own emotional journey. ‘Echoes’ is the perfect evidence of that, the project’s latest EP.
From a sonic standpoint, ‘Echoes’ enjoys a great deal of cinematic allure, with expansive and blissful textures wrapping listeners into a hypnotic aural experience. The EP shifts between melancholic episodes and mellower, reflective moments, a balance of intents and emotions that provides the cornerstone for Kully Bath’s elegant and nostalgic artistry. In particular, ‘Echoes’ finds its lyrical roots in Bath’s own life journey, a nuanced dive into grief, pain, and personal resolve.
Delving deeper into the meaningful songwriting ethos that guides her artistry, Bath explains: “Everything I write comes from a place of truth. My journey as a caregiver and the loss of my mum shaped who I am as a person and as a songwriter. Through music, I have been able to transform pain into purpose.” We appreciate Kully’s purposeful outlook, as she uses music as a cathartic tool to heal her inner wounds. We suspect that her songs will inspire others to do the same.
