Joseph Lothian ‘The Florid Verge’
Inspired by the destructive yet miraculous journey of transformation, Joseph Lothian shares his third and latest album, The Florid Verge, delving into the delicate and frightening whispers in the state of change. With rich and complex emotions woven into his soulfully expressed lines, moving melodies in resonance with synth-sprinkled folk soundscapes and rock aesthetic. Introspection meets the intense process of rebirth. Ash and flame. Beauty and destruction.
From the budding new sounds that burst out their shells for the first time to the haunting acoustic mingling with synthetic tones in an intense dance, The Florid Verge vibrates between light and dark, unraveling the connection between nature and our inner world. Sonically, it exists in the space where possibilities become endless.
The Florid Verge is an earthy album, but it also seems to have stretched out far into the distant sky. Reconnecting and rejuvenating, shedding new skins and embracing anew. Sparked with authenticity and vibrant energy, the album gives listeners another close look at the sensitive and introspective world inside Lothian’s unique songwriting. It’s more than ever meaningful, grounded and imaginative.
