MAZ O'CONNOR - Live @ The Harrison LondonMAZ O'CONNOR - Live @ The Harrison London

Maz O’Connor's music has been described by The Observer as 'the perfect mix of youthfulness and gravitas'. Her songs are short stories wrapped in a unique soundscape. They combine acoustic instruments, folk imagery, electronic soundscapes and O’Connor’s ethereal vocals. A millennial meeting of Joni Mitchell and Kate Bush, heartbreak, longing, and a taste for irony remain constant touchstones. Other influences include Paula Rego, Mary Oliver, Nina Simone, Bjork, Dylan, sessions in Irish pubs, urban foxes, and the lonely moon. Her new album, co-written and co-produced with composer Will Gardner, is an ambitious song-cycle set in the city at night. It explores themes of anxiety, isolation, gentrification, capitalism, sexuality, spirituality, and the search for connection in an age of consumerism. ‘O’Connor’s ace, apart from her remarkable songwriting talent, is her captivating voice.’ (Q)
