"Setting the scene for his new release as one of trembling, spectral beauty, this soaring minisymphony swells with big euphoric strings and the Welsh bedroom auteur’s uncanny falsetto; like a one-man Fleet Foxes” - MOJO

“Nice and chilled" - Huw Stephens, BBC Radio 1 

“A thing of fragile beauty with songs for you to clutch tight on lonesome nights. We’ve rarely felt this way about a singer-songwriter” - Drowned in Sound

"As soon as I heard ‘Carry You’, I instantly loved it. This could be the song for you, it could cure everything'' - Greg James, BBC Radio 1 

Novo Amor is Ali Lacey. He lives in Cardiff, in a house that’s part-home, part-studio, a place where the distant chatter of a party across the street, Bonfire Night fireworks and the seagulls that congregate on the building site next door bleed into his recordings.

He began Novo Amor as a project of sorts - an act of defiance in the wake of a break-up, but along the way, quite unexpectedly, he found something rich and rewarding. Years ago, a summer spent by an evergreen-surrounded lake in upstate New York supplied both the impetus and imagery that he would use to craft his debut album Birthplace (2018).

 As he prepares to release ‘Cannot Be, Whatsoever’, Lacey contemplates a past soundtracked by songs of quiet hope and longing. “I can still see the lake upstate when I picture ‘Birthplace’, the songs sheltered by this place I’ve romanticised that don't actually exist anymore. These new songs feel immediate and noisy in comparison, almost optimistic. If ‘Birthplace’ is the countryside, then ‘Cannot Be, Whatsoever’ is the city.”

Strictly over 18’s
