With her third album, the Australian singer-songwriter Hatchie took a profound look at the bittersweet highs and lows, and ecstatic ebbs and flows that love and intimacy can offer. OFFKEY editor Felicia Ete Aghaye shares her views on the record and its influences.
When I say Blues, a vivid image probably crosses your mind: somewhere in the deep South of the United States, a man, an acoustic guitar that has had better days, a scarcely lit bar around midnight, a half-empty glass of whiskey.
