Description
Rites & Revelations represents a powerful return and creative re-emergence for Jurd, who had stepped away from regular performance and recording for several years to focus on her family. Written with patience and intention over 6 months following a move to Somerset, it concentrates a sense of yearning and pent-up artistic expression in what is a striking and personal album. As she says, “This album has distilled my identity and brought together things I love in a way that feels uniquely me.”
A coming together of her two musical worlds, jazz and folk, Rites & Revelations draws on the traditional instrumentation of Jurd’s English and Scottish heritage, alongside diverse European folk influences, lacing the 10-track album with deep modal harmonies and vibrant rhythmic turns that embrace both light and dark in moments of high drama and staggering beauty.
