Biography

Reconnecting with life after having seen and lived everything. Opening one's eyes again after trauma, loss, or a lost love. Lissom’s Eclipses brings to life these experiences. After a first eponymous record characterized by its romanticism and delicacy (2018, Whales Records), the duo composed of pianist, composer, and producer Julien Marchal and British songwriter and producer Lowswimmer (Ed Tullett) returns with Eclipses, a refined and poetic play of light. The two composers, separated by the sea and the past years’ confinements, worked remotely, exchanging their contributions via Ableton Live (a music creation software). This process brought a unique emotion and warmth to their masterful assets, imparting the feeling that the singer's falsetto and the Frenchman's minimalist piano longed to find each other and embrace. Separation anxiety impregnates the record: the loneliness that comes with it, but also the luminous hope of rebirth and the resumption of a former life. Here, the memory of the other is often painful, but also a source of comfort. Love betrays and hurts, but constitutes, by the trace it leaves and the promise it carries. ‘Eclipses’ is a more transparent and airy record than Lissom’s eponymous debut; simpler and perhaps even more moving. The presence of melancholy reveals a desolate but pure serenity that permeates all the tracks, just like Lowry's restrained distress..
