Mood Ring

The latest album from Philly songwriter Zoe Reynolds embraces the synths and glitter of pop music, but it feels most luminous when it’s raw.

Kississippi has long flirted at the edges of genre conventions, beginning all the way back when bandleader Zoe Reynolds was recording her first acoustic demos in her mom’s laundry room. Since then she’s diverted into confessional emo pop and indie rock, eventually making her full-length debut with 2018’s perennially underrated Sunset Blush.
