Folk acoustica with conscious lyrics and Americana undertones from progressive & rock celebrated, singer-songwriter, Heather Findlay.

​

Stripping it all back, Wildflower follows Findlay on a solo journey, exploring self-love and inner-growth.

​

Creating the seed bed for her signature, heart-led, melodic top lines to blossom, Wildflower sees Findlay laying an earthy foundation for herself with the trusty wood and wire of her acoustic guitar, scene changing piano and the subtle embrace of keys. The soaring uplift of occasional woodwind and the augmentation of bountiful vocal harmony work, are grounded by the underpinning pulse of tasteful kick drum and percussion throughout, serving to make Wildflower a colourful, yet holistic, sonic experience.

​

As the album's only guest, long time, musical compadre Troy Donockley lends a Cohen-esque vocal and Portuguese Mandola to the lilting duet, 'Still Burning'.

​​

"Flowing with life and bowing to the muse, Wildflower has seemingly become a compendium of love letters. To the self, to the other, to the divine, to humanity, to my children, both inner and outer, to the dark, to the light, to animals, to nature and to our beautiful, sky sailors of inspiration, the birds" ~ Heather 

​

Ear-worm laden, mellow yet, foot tapping throughout, from southern drawly opener, 'You Light The Fire', to baroque ballad 'Ever True', to devotional, piano-led 'May It Be' and to the album's closest thing to epic, 'Arms Of Oak', a lighter, and lighter offering than Wild White Horses is Wildflower perhaps, but with the ever self re-inventing, heart following Findlay in the producer's seat, this is perhaps not such an unexpected change in direction...
