Bursting with a triumphant poignance that takes the singer-songwriter into fresh and glorious territory, Lucy Rose’s fifth album finds her bolstering an already well-stocked skillset with charming lashings of trip-hop, smooth jazz, and soulful pop pomp.

A lot has happened in the 5 years since ‘No Words Left’ lit up our grateful ears: Lucy started a label, became a mother, and was diagnosed with a very serious health condition. All in the midst of a pandemic. But, like a perennially budding flower blooming despite severe seasonal swings, she has come through the other side, penning her most personal, wise, and, against-all-odds, joyous record yet.

Lit up with jazzy instrumentals and a verve for life that only comes to those who have risked losing it all, ‘This Ain’t The Way You Go Out’ is full of defiance, hope, and dew-licked melodies. It’s about seizing the moment, making the most of what you have, and not giving in, no matter how sheer the adversities may seem.

We just know that we’ll be rapidly reaching for this soul-boosting album of infectious strength whenever times get tough.
