Description
Blurring the lines between the mundane and the mystical, Eska's latest album, The Ordinary Life of a Magic Woman, is a profound exploration of motherhood, artistry, and the delicate dance between daily rhythms and creative transcendence.

For Eska, these aren't opposing forces--they're inseparable threads in a richly woven life. "It's the sound of a first-generation, middle-aged African British woman living in post-everything Southeast London," Eska reflects.

After two decades of trailblazing collaborations with world-renowned artists - Moses Sumney, Grace Jones, Radiohead and Baxter Dury, to name a few - along with various accolades - including a Mercury Prize Nomination, Eska's new album stands as her most personal and compelling work yet. A self-directed journey, it sees her embracing her ultimate creative partner: herself.

Rooted in her eclectic musical upbringing, Eska pulls inspiration from the sounds and influences that have defined her journey, breaking free of conventional boundaries. The result is a body of work that defies easy categorisation-- bold, dynamic, and unmistakably hers.
