Lissom is a collaborative work between French pianist, producer & composer Julien Marchal and British songwriter Ed Tullett aka Lowswimmer.
Originally written remotely in their respective homes for piano and voice, it was transformed by ambient instrumentation and strings, and became less an album, more a melting-pot of beautiful songs, dark poetic lyrics and instrumental flourishes.
A record fit for a quiet, lightless room.
Listen to their 2nd album « Eclipses ».

« Against this ochre backdrop that every morning would envy, Lissom reveals himself as the latter: tentatively, he takes his time to emerge, a dignified conqueror of a beauty that would make all of Friedrich's paintings pale in comparison. He embraces his status as a great romantic, as well as his dazzling sentimentality, without hiding behind frills or laborious effects. Raw, fragile, and poetic, the eponymous album marking the collaboration between British producer/singer Ed Tullett and French pianist/composer Julien Marchal glides quietly along the ever-more-intense shores of melancholy.» — Indie Music
