Nowadays, voice memos, videos, and pictures chronicle our lives in real-time. We trace where we've been and reveal where we're going. However, Suki Waterhouse catalogs the most intimate, formative, and significant moments of her life through songs. You might recognize her name or her work as singer, songwriter, actress but you'll really get to know the multi-faceted artist through her music. Memories of unrequited love, fits of longing, instances of anxiety, and unfiltered snapshots interlock like puzzle pieces into a mosaic of well-worn country, nineties-style alternative, and unassuming pop. She writes the kind of tunes meant to be grafted onto dusty old vinyl from your favorite vintage record store, yet perfect for a sun-soaked festival stage. These compositions comprise her upcoming 2022 full-length debut album, I Can't Let Go.
"The album is called I Can't Let Go, because for years it felt like I was wearing heavy moments on my sleeve and it just didn't make sense to do so anymore," Waterhouse says. "There's so much that I've never spoken about. Writing music has always been where it felt safe to do so. Every song for the record was a necessity. In many ways, I've been observing my life as an outsider – even when I've been on the inside. It's like I was a visitor watching things happen."
Produced by Grammy-nominated producer and songwriter Brad Cook (Bon Iver, War On Drugs, Snail Mail, Waxahatchee), I Can't Let Go is introduced by the evocative singles "Moves," "My Mind" and "Melrose Meltdown."
