Liz Lenten (BEM) <\/strong>says \u201cAfter lockdown, and all that isolation and distance\u2026Behind the Scenes<\/strong> grew from a desire to connect. Working with writers, vocalists, musicians, and producers from around the world, each song came from shared ideas and honest conversations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The album explores everyday life – relationships, friendships and situations we find ourselves in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recorded across the U.S., the U.K., and Brazil, each of the 32 different collaborators brought their own perspective, sound, and experience, giving a wide range of musical approaches and writing styles from rootsy americana to soulful pop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I think that diversity really pushed me creatively and let the songs move across different moods and textures, just like the people behind the music.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First single \u2018Perfect Imperfections\u2019  \u2013 23rd<\/sup> January 2026<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cPerfect Imperfections is a love song about how our affections deepen through vulnerability and humour; not in spite of our imperfections, but because of them\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
