Dear all, My new album 'Fragile as humans' will be out on 3rd May! I'm mighty proud of this record made at The Wool Hall in Beckington, UK with producer, Luke Potashnick & can't wait to share it with you. It speaks to themes of grief, loss, love, hope, vulnerability, compassion...experiences common to our humanity. You can pre-order a physical copy beautifully created by Headjam in box set (YES!), deluxe vinyl, vinyl, CD formats from my Bandcamp page or your fave indie record store, or pre-save it on Spotify, TIDAL, etc. Head here to do so: emilybarker.com/fragile Thank you. 💛 Emily #newalbum#fragileashumans#vinylrecord#boxset#cd#spotify#newmusic#newsongs
On the 27th October, 1949, two sisters married two brothers in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. One of those pairs was Reiner and Toos, my grandparents, or Ray and Cath as they were known in Australia when they emigrated to Perth in 1952. 'The Double Wedding' was filmed and years later when my nanna passed away, my grandpa grieved by watching the wedding repeatedly. He showed it to me, my siblings, and to dad and mum (their daughter), offering a commentary of who was who frame by frame and cleverly, Mum captured this commentary on her dictaphone. Later when updating the format from VCR to DVD, she overlaid the audio recording.
Twenty years on, I found the DVD and felt it was time for another upgrade given the advances in technology - it is now safely stored in the cloud and on various hard drives, and now also as snippets of their special day accompanying my new single, Dinosaur Bones, in a video created by filmmaker Tori Styles. My grandpa would have been incredibly proud to have this footage wedded with my music and likely would have shown it to any passer-by. My nanna would have been shy and deflective of the attention, but content if we all were - such were their opposite natures. My mum is warmed to know there is continued interest in her family and Dutch heritage and to acknowledge connection through generations of family.
