Maple Glider - To Enjoy Is The Only Thing. LP [First Pressing, Pearly Green Vinyl]
Maple Glider is Naarm/ Melbourne-based singersongwriter Tori Zietsch. On her debut album ‘To Enjoy is the Only Thing’, written whilst Zietsch lived in Brighton in the UK, she compiles a striking set of vignettes from her life; growing up in a restrictive religious household, falling in and out of love, cross-country and international travel, longing, alienation and more. Moments both unremarkable and life-altering but always deeply felt, brought to vivid life by the beauty of Tori’s artistry and wry sense of dark humour.
“To me, ‘To Enjoy is the Only Thing’ feels like walking past tinsel-covered trees in mid-September, swimming along the calanques in the south of France, frost on the hood of a car, darkness at 4pm, lightness until 10pm, Sibylle Baier’s Colour Green, Devendra Banhart’s Ma, Adrianne Lenker’s a-sides, a muted feeling, the perpetual grey fog that swallows the Silver Coast in Portugal, an ugly green dress, the color red, red wine, red blood, red lips, the red of a cardinal’s robe, Switzerland, my mother’s diaries, a coroner’s report, the sun on my face, the end of love.”
For fans of Julia Jacklin, Phoebe Bridgers & Juice Webster
