Description: 'You called yourself broken, but that's just what people are, that's how the light gets in', sings Bess Atwell in the opening moments of 'Light Sleeper', before gentle hums of strings and shuffling snares make way for the Brighton singer's voice at full pelt, singing with a newfound rawness. 'Light Sleeper is about the willingness to feel', the Brighton singer-songwriter explains. 'Somewhere along the line I had become very afraid of feeling'. A huge part of this exploratory new era was Aaron Dessner, who produced 'Light Sleeper' at his isolated cabin studio Long Pond, in Hudson Valley. The immediate trust between the pair clicked the moment Atwell walked through the doors of the iconic recording space. Motifs of sleeping and waking run throughout 'Light Sleeper', which constantly stirs and settles, Atwell embracing the full range and rawness of her voice like never before.
