Émilie Tiersen has, over the course of two albums and several years, made music as Tiny Feet and is now, with the release of Seim, her debut for Mute known as <a href="spotify:artist:10FKxn7w2iNuFkI0uKm9KH" data-name="QUINQUIS">QUINQUIS</a>. The name change is symbolic; simultaneously paying homage to her personal and family history by referencing her maiden name, as well as representing a fresh start musically.
From forging a deeper connection to her own culture, history and identity, to exploring new musical terrain and becoming a mother, it’s been a period filled with significant change. It was during this time that she began to explore new ideas which began to mutate into something more musical. She connected with <a href="spotify:artist:1W9zmk9JQsQaKSpphFHkUV" data-name="Gareth Jones">Gareth Jones</a>, celebrated producer who has worked with groups such as Liars, Depeche Mode and Apparat who initially offered to play some synths but their partnership grew into something more and has collaborated on the whole album. Collaborations also extend to Ólavur Jákupsson and the writer and endurance cyclist Emily Chappell. To make it even more unique, Émilie sings throughout in Breton.
Nature is key to the album and lends itself to the title, as well as key themes in individual songs. It’s an album that brings to life, in a singular and contemporary way, the lives, stories and people of the Breton culture and its language.
