Maple Glider - To Enjoy Is The Only Thing (CD)

Maple Glider - To Enjoy Is The Only Thing (CD) Maple Glider is Naarm/ Melbourne-based singer-songwriter Tori Zietsch. On debut album ØTo Enjoy is the Only ThingÙ, 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 ToriÙs artistry and wry sense of dark humour. ÜTo me, ØTo Enjoy is the Only ThingÙ 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 BaierÙs Colour Green, Devendra BanhartÙs Ma, Adrianne LenkerÙs 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 cardinalÙs robe, Switzerland, my motherÙs diaries, a coronerÙs report, the sun on my face, the end of love.Ý TRACKLISTING 1.
