about

Harnessing the cathartic lyricism of Björk and the string-fuelled power of Crooked Still, Monique Clare's debut album 'Sight' tracks a journey through trauma and pain through to beauty and love. Originally written for voice and cello, the recordings are filled out with string, harp, drum and brass arrangements, orchestrated by the artist herself.

This digital download includes three bonus tracks and a set of journal prompts for each track of the album. Delver deeper into the lyrics, learn about the meaning behind each song and respond with your own reflections.

Sight was recorded on Kaplan cello strings courtesy of D'Addario Orchestral.
