Reviews and Comments
Happy release day to Barrie! You can listen to her new album Barbara anywhere you stream music – and the album is available to pick up on vinyl, cassette or cd from your favorite local record shop. Exclusive to record stores in North America is the Metallic Blue version of Barbara on vinyl (photo above by Anna Powell Denton).
Barbara is a beautifully peculiar collection of synth-pop, art-pop, indie rock, and folk songs that reflect a new willingness to let listeners into her inner world. At once “ethereal and empowering” (Gorilla vs. Bear), the record finds Barrie singing boldly atop intense instrumentation, exploring themes of love and loss in what Consequence has deemed “a massive statement piece from the wildly talented Barrie.”
You can also grab the new album on Aqua Blue vinyl from the Winspear webstore. Bundle your purchase with the Barrie dancer tee shirt or Happy To Be Here vinyl. Check out all the praise the album has received in the press below.
* PRAISE FOR BARBARA *
Ethereal and empowering.
— Gorilla vs. Bear
[Barrie] has carved out a distinct stylistic identity...blurring the line between indie rock and pop in a somewhat mystic fashion.
— Stereogum
Buoyed by a sort of ’90s after-school warmth, Barbara hearkens to childhood even as it expands far into maturity.
—Vinyl Me Please
Indeed, Barbara’s strengths come through its sheer originality...an album that truly sounds like no other
— Consequence
She’s a master songwriter. In a way, she’s just somebody who just hears music a little differently to the rest of us.
— Matt Wilkinson (Apple Music 1)
Barrie moves fluidly between sparkling indie rock tunes and ethereal, pop-leaning tracks, singing about everything from bittersweet love ballads to compelling reflections on family.
