All You Have Is All You Need

Coolheaded and confident, Ainslie Wills’ second album shores up her knack for songs that feel at once intimate and vast. Her poised voice simmering with emotion, the Melbourne singer-songwriter leans into stripped-down backdrops that surprise with the occasional baroque flourishes. Co-producing with longtime collaborator Lawrence Folvig, Wills brings subtle modern touches to otherwise timeless tunes, whether in the laid-bare anxiety confessional “Fear of Missing Out” or the stirring childhood reminiscence “Suzie.” The visionary art-pop arrangements follow suit, with a percussive heartbeat pulse anchoring the tender “Unlock the Vault.”
