Liz Lawrence confirms details of new album Vespers

Liz Lawrence by Steve Gullick

Liz Lawrence sets her fifth studio record for release on June 5th.

Liz Lawrence has confirmed the details of her new album Vespers and shared four songs from the LP including lead single Black Ulysses.

Lawrence says she doesn’t, ‘recognise the person I was before’, after experiencing the sudden death of her sister during the time of 2024’s Peanuts, this new material written over a period of three weeks six months on from that tragic event.

“The album is very specifically about my sister and my family’s situation, but equally, that is universal,” she’s said.

It is bewildering to me that grief and death, which happen to literally all of us, are still something we keep locked away. There’s no room for it. You have to create that, and most people don’t know what to do with it, even when they’ve gone through it themselves.
