Speaking about her new EP, Chloe Josephine enthuses:
“It feels so good to create soulful music again and share my softer, more romantic side. I feel music and songwriting deeply, and making music that reflects the mood I want to embody truly has a positive impact on my wellbeing.
I’m so proud of my husband Jon Parkins and especially to Jonny Moody of Mood Market Studios for his dedication, time, care and passion. I’m also proud of me for creating something whilst navigating so many changes.”
‘Rebloom’ brings together four new songs written over the past year, each reflecting the major shifts in my life and my renewed focus on finding balance. The closing track is something special—a remastered phone recording of a hauntingly beautiful song I wrote four years ago about loss.
