Wooff, Toria
Toria Wooff
Bolton-born gothic-folk songwriter Toria Wooff unveils her self-titled debut LP, a hauntingly poetic collection of songs weaving love, loss, and womanhood with a contemporary folk twist. Inspired by M.R. James' ghost stories, gothic literature, and '70s folk icons like Fairport Convention and Townes Van Zandt, the album feels like a compendium of short stories, each track standing alone yet bound by the human experience. Recorded at Sloe Flower Studio with James Wyatt, the album embraces minimalist restraint, allowing Wooff's warm vocals and intricate guitar work to shine. Featuring evocative storytelling in tracks like 'The Waltz Of Winter Hey' and 'Seeing Things Through,' the LP blends ethereal melodies with raw emotion. Pressed on 140g black vinyl, this indies-only release is limited to just 300 copies. A must-have for fans of folk's beautifully strange new era.
