PEARL debuted in 2023, quickly gracing Spotify editorials, revered music press and building a strong fan base. Since then, the British newcomer has continued to bring her classical training to bewitching pop soundscapes, breaking free from conventions and balancing organic and electronic sounds.
PEARL’s music is floating, it transcends the speakers in a way that is hard to capture. The intricacy of her synth design never fails to create an alternative reality, a sonic house of mirrors. With her second EP, I Move Around You, expectations are high, her debut saw widespread acclaim for a refreshing sound, yet PEARL manages to break new boundaries with her follow-up.
Across five tracks, PEARL flies through space, harnessing an angelic power to perfectly capture the feelings of the title. Ethereal and evolving, she shines in every sound, the pop pulse of ‘Sunday’s Never Scary’, the celestial quality of ‘Body Parts’ and the momentous lift of the new track ‘Confidence’. PEARL holds a hand out to her audience, and if you decide to take it, you’ll be taken on a euphoric journey in the stars.
“If you told me a few years ago that I would be writing and releasing music, I wouldn’t have believed you,” PEARL shares. “Finding confidence in myself has been scary but healing. I’ve had to look at the things I didn’t want to acknowledge and open up old wounds. I Move Around You timestamps moments of tension and release in navigating self-growth within a long-term relationship.”
