‘Dark Sky Reserve’ is Kester’s most artistically focused record to date, combining a rich, layered humanity in the music with minimalist lyricism.
With the help of producer Ali Chant and a variety of other collaborators including Adrian Utley (Portishead) and Rozi Plain, Kester balances scenes of idyllic bliss from the “magical and strange” ‘Talybont-on-Usk’ with existential questions on ‘Departure’. Written in the nights of recording sessions in Bristol, ‘Dark Sky Reserve’ is the result of Kester writing from a place of newfound clarity: “I could see myself for who I am.”
Following her 2020 “mini album”, ‘This Is Not A Democracy’, Kester was lauded for her stirring blend of chamber pop and psychedelia for her debut album, ‘Honeycomb Shades’ (2023)
