Jason Kemp This is the standout track on the album. The combo of lazy beats and dream moves wins. The video is fabulous too.

“… one of the country’s coolest, most sultry voices" The NZ Listener

Ebony Lamb writes with a poetic voice and a vivid, surrealistic intimacy. The New Zealand singer-songwriter and photographer turns the minutiae of everyday life and the defining memories that stay with us into a rich melange of folk, jazz, soul, and ambient pop. The Wellington-based artist spent her formative years as a traveller, mother, and worker, eventually co-founding the alt-country band Eb & Sparrow in 2010.

Drawing comparisons to Gillian Welch, Cat Power and Neko Case, Ebony released three critically-acclaimed albums with the band before embarking on a solo career under her own name. Played and produced with two of New Zealand’s most celebrated modern musicians, Bic Runga and Kody Nielson (Opossom, Silicon, UMO), “EBONY LAMB” is a forthcoming watershed work from a genuine talent coming into her own. The album’s first single ‘Take My Hands at Night’ is nominated for the 2023 APRA Silver Scroll Award.

lyrics

Oh my daughter, my sister, my son
Oh my god, my heart, my love
All these dreams

See them all come at the downtown mall
Friday might, she's coming to a crawl
Two-toned yellow
Orwell’s pen
Sinner and the thief
At it again

Here she comes now and she’s always called
Never stop talking, it’s getting old
The arrogance
Apathy
Far off leaners
Conspiracies

Coming in deep
Calling in stoned
Falling to a fever
For someone

Oh my daughter, my sister, my son
Oh my god, my heart, my love

Keep me dreaming
Keep me dreaming
Keep me dreaming

Keep the dream
