Bella Union

<p>Bella Union is a UK label that has been run by Simon Raymonde, former member of Cocteau Twins, since 1997. With a focus on discovering new talent, Bella Union has introduced the world to bands such as Fleet Foxes, Beach House, Lanterns on The Lake, I Break Horses, Ballet School, and Midlake. As a ℗ & © coyright holding entity, Bella Union continues to be at the forefront of the music industry.</p>

<p>Italian-born, London-based singer-songwriter Emma Tricca's life was shaped by encounters with folk legends. As an apprentice songwriter, she met John Renbourn after his solo show in Rome. Encouraged by his approval of her own song, Emma gained the confidence to start writing and gigging properly. She remains close friends with Renbourn. Shortly after meeting him, she also had the privilege of meeting Odetta, the mysterious and legendary singer who influenced Bob Dylan's acoustic music in the late '50s.</p>

“It felt like I was driving through tunnels,” Emma Tricca says of her fourth album – her first for Bella Union. A phosphorescent panorama of undulating colour, shape and sound. 

As with any transformation, it is this sense of movement that underpins Aspirin Sun and its bold new form, ebbing and flowing, continually unfurling. The tunnels led the Italian-born, London-based singer-songwriter towards something expansive and far-reaching: an entirely new and experimental collection of songs. 

This new psychedelic horizon could only be fully brought to life by a band she calls her family. The same musicians she collaborated with on her 2018 outing, St. Peter: Sonic Youth’s Steve Shelley, Dream Syndicate guitarist Jason Victor, and bass player Pete Galub. All three musicians brought something unique to the record.
