The Heart Speaks in Whispers was partially recorded in Los Angeles where, according to Billboard, Rae fell in love with its black Bohemian alternative scene. The vibe is far more colorful than anything she’s done previously, and her collaborators-KING, Esperanza Spalding, Moses Sumney and others-set a high bar for unique alternative art.

That was six years ago.įollowing yet another hiatus from music, Rae is back with a new album and a lush new sound.

“It was like a barrenness which I’d never experienced this sense of time just stretching and stretching and not having anything to put into it all.” As a result, Rae’s follow-up album- The Sea-felt sullen, full of edgy sounds expressing loss and despair. “For a huge period, I didn’t want to do anything,” Rae told The Independent in 2010. It led to a creative hiatus and a moment of intense reflection. Yet in 2008, Rae’s husband, Jason, died after an overdose of alcohol and methadone. Rae quickly became a star in 2007, she was nominated for three Grammy awards and three Brit awards, and her debut record has sold four million copies worldwide. It was the second single of Rae’s 2006 debut album, and one of the first times we saw the singer/guitarist, whose blend of soul music is equally weightless and captivating. It was a lovely scene, a strong sign of togetherness and femininity, set against a sunlit backdrop. If you’ve kept up with Corinne Bailey Rae over the years, your mind likely goes to one place-to that dusty road where, in the video for “ Put Your Records On,” she and a few friends biked casually through the countryside.
