The fourth studio album from Little Boots AKA Victoria Hesketh marks a profound personal rebirth. A tenderly euphoric, songwriterly disco album about what it means to get yourself back. It’s a coming-of-age record that casts a compassionate eye on youthful insecurity and pledges to stop living life in the passenger seat. It is her first self-produced album, and its piano-led songs reflect her classical music training as well as a lifelong love of iconic artists such as Elton John, Carole King, the Bee Gees and of course ABBA. Little Boots will be joining ABBA for their trailblazing virtual tour in support of Voyage, their first album in 40 years.
With plaudits for the new music coming in from the likes of NME, the BBC, The Line Of Best Fit and Clash, it’s a powerful time for Little Boots, who said “I feel like I’m ready to take on the world. I feel like I can do anything, which is amazing after such a strange couple of years. I feel like I’ve got all this ammunition: I’ve got this record that I’m so proud of that people genuinely seem to be really liking, and I’m about to go into a dream gig with my favourite band ever. I feel like I’ve been in a cocoon and I’m about to come out a sequin-covered butterfly.” From that little flame came a rousing disco inferno.
