about

A heartfelt plea for softness and simplicity, ‘the return’ is an alternative indie-folk moment like a float in a pool of melancholic memories. Starting with a fictional conversation with an ex, ‘the return’ initially talks about restlessness and loneliness.

Within combining these two sentiments we encounter a poetic song that hits the folklore world of Joni Mitchell and hints to lush arrangements inspired by the repertoire of Damien Rice.

There’s a vulnerability in coming back to yourself after a relationship that didn’t work out. nelleke sings about this process as she celebrates the ‘she of gold’, that internal manifestation of the person that she reaches to be, while going through a time where she herself got confused about who that is.
