Crafted as a chronological storyboard of emotional upheaval, this new album encapsulates Davies’ journey through the stages of relationship grief. But don’t expect a mere lamentation; “Lovers’ Gothic” skillfully blends elements of pop and classical music, infusing poignant melodies and velvety vocals to soothe the soul. Recorded in top-tier studios across the country, Maïa enlisted a stellar lineup of collaborators, including Marcus Paquin (Begonia), Erin Costelo (Kaïa Kater), David Mohacsi (Rêve, Mother Mother), and more, to co-produce this raw and evocative collection.
