Below Dawn

As it traverses sentimental themes, from societal change and untapped emotions to the profound journey of pregnancy and motherhood, the album exudes an aura of intimacy. This emotional depth is complemented by Bryony's distinctive, harmonious vocals and the infusion of jazz-inspired melodies. 'Below Dawn' is a deeply personal and transformative musical journey, the title encapsulates this transition beautifully. "This album speaks about myself just before I gave birth and stepped into a new era so, the name reflects that underlying hidden catalyst" Bryony adds. The album is produced by Ben Lamdin, aka label-mate Nostalgia 77, whose credits include writing and producing for artists such as Jamie Cullum, Alice Russell, and Jeb Loy Nichols.

The focus track, "Deep" blossomed from a vocal improvisation that Bryony took from a Jazz Workshop she ran through lockdown. Now a nocturne, the love song is dedicated to Bryony's partner at the point that they decided to start a family, beautifully summed up by the line "we are golden light, about to dawn", linking back to the title of the project.

'Below Dawn'''s inception coincided with the initial stages of the pandemic, and the early songs capture the emotional turmoil of those times. These tracks served as a cathartic release for the tensions and frustrations experienced during lockdown.
