LYDIA AINSWORTH, the Toronto-based singer, songwriter, and producer, presents her second album, Darling of the Afterglow, on Bella Union. LYDIA AINSWORTH's richly imagined new album blends nostalgic pop, otherworldly synth sounds, classical arrangements, and bizarre-gothic R&B influences. The songs were conceived far from home before being brought to life in her hometown. An album of intimate emotions projected onto a widescreen canvas, it was recorded by a team of local Toronto musicians in Toronto.
