A.A. Williams Songs From Isolation LP (Black & White Splatter Vinyl)

Following her 2020 debut album, Forever Blue, A.A. Williams presents Songs From Isolation, a 9-track LP of covers. The project began at the beginning of the UK's nationwide lockdown in March 2020, when A.A. Williams took songs suggested by fans and created a series of videos presenting the tracks with stripped-down instrumentation, recorded and filmed from her home in North London. The album represents a continuation of the project into a full collection of recordings and features cover versions of The Cure, Pixies, Gordon Lightfoot, Radiohead, the Moody Blues, Deftones, Nine Inch Nails, Nick Cave and Smashing Pumpkins.

To mark the announcement Williams has shared her version of "Lovesong" by The Cure. Of the track Williams says: "Lovesong was one of the first songs suggested by fans for the Songs From Isolation series, and was one of my favourites to rework - the original conjures up such nostalgic feelings, I really wanted to honour as many of elements of it as possible. The lyrics are so beautiful and tender and I wanted to shine a light on them in this version, so I've tried to create a delicate backdrop for them out of the melodic elements of The Cure's original."
