A familiar face on our blog, Portland-based avant-garde artist, neo-classical composer, experimental songwriter, producer, poet, and singer Mary Knoblock has built quite the cultural CV for herself. Boasting a holistic view of music and personal expression, the American creative not only drives a successful musical project but also runs a large online community, Produced By A Girl, geared towards growing the impact of women in music. Despite her successful professional life, Knoblock never lost the inspiration to write.
‘PEACH’ is the perfect evidence of that, an atmospheric and cinematic album that delivers a wealth of hypnotic soundscapes and ambient-coded pieces. Woven into purposeful songwriting and angelic, melodic vocals, the record dives into neo-classical and acoustic territories, eventually blooming into a leftfield, avant-garde wonder.
Delving deeper into the introspective and empowering lyrical ethos that propels ‘PEACH’, Knoblock explains: “‘PEACH’ is what happens when you stop hiding from your own feelings. It’s tender. It’s messy. It’s warm. It’s the moment you realise you deserve to be chosen, even after everything.” It’s an incredibly powerful message, one that could serve well to many folks out there. Understanding that we hold the power to better our lives and to gain a more authentic self is life-changing, as Mary Knoblock already knows.
