Rachel Sermanni is to play Boat of Garten Community Hall.
The Carrbridge-born star (32), who has won a huge audience with her genius for mundane moments mystical, is headed for the stath on May 31.
The moon and how it pulls, bare feet on wood floors, the soft glow of a house plant, ‘what even is consciousness?’, strange dreams lingering in quiet mornings - these have all gone into the mystical mix of an artist who brims with dreamy indie-folk pop.
She speaks of the struggle and desire to flow, to love, to live, to feel.
She is currently touring and sharing her fourth studio album Dreamer Awake, an in-depth assortment of playful and candid vignettes, peeping into life: after birth, after separation and in the wake of recognising the internalised conditionings of patriarchy.
Sermanni fans know that she seeks to be honest with herself and her environment, to “speak from the descent, the plateaus, the dream-catchings and contemplations of womanhood.”
It is her call to arms, to wake up and dream the future, “to dismiss the external for a minute and tend to the inner landscape of heart and mind. To not be distracted. To focus on the light and the shadow in equal measure.”
Since the release of Dreamer Awake, Rachel has become a mother for the second time and continues to explore the experience while offering her songs and insights.
