The creation of 'primrose was in season' was creative and buoyant, bringing joy to a very difficult time in my life.

I was struggling to get pregnant and stay pregnant. I felt like the odds were against me, like I couldn't gain control of my own life. But in the studio, I felt like I had some control over what I was making, and I was also having a blast. Kevin Salem and I layered organic textures like pump organ and pots and pans with drum beats and samples to create something hi-fi, yet handmade. Driving my foot into the organ pedal felt like a meditation, and with each press I let go of a little bit of anger. I felt a little more like myself with each piano take. And what took shape was my own version of dream pop, a world in which I could both escape and process a lot of difficult feelings.

'primrose was in season' proved to be a pregnancy unto itself, taking nine months to create in the studio. The whole journey, from its first written note to its birth by way of album release, has spanned three years, the same amount of time it took me to get to my daughter. Primrose, known for its healing properties, is her birth month flower.
