Maritz

The new solo offering by Jonnine takes its title from her mother’s maiden name – “the most haunted word I know” The collection’s eight songs deploy an eclectic array of scavenged instruments: bass guitar, a broken Swiss metronome, an oddly tuned wooden stringed instrument, sparing use of recorder, Halloween charm bracelets and a homemade glockenspiel found at “an abandoned high school in the hills” Released by DJ Sundae’s Idle Press imprint, Maritz captures a versatile artist at a widening crossroads. Night flights, torn up photos, psychic spiders spinning webs like talismans – the world of these songs is imagistic and unrequited, attuned to absences and afterlifes. limited edition vinyl LP here via Idle Press idlepress.bandcamp.com/album/maritz Jonnine - I Put a Little Thing In Your Pocket www.youtube.com/watch?v=O3IXuzBvwTc Jonnine - Three Spider Bites www.youtube.com/watch?v=NKnnsz86W_4

On a charming new solo album, the HTRK vocalist writes lighthearted folk music about loss and longing.
