Turbulence

Description

Sony Masterworks is proud to present Elliott Armen's second album, *Turbulence*. For this one, the young singer decided to travel to Scotland, dreaming of a particularly isolated recording on the Isle of Lewis. There lies the inspiring Black Bay Studio, run by Peter Fletcher, on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean. Leaving Saint-Malo by ferry to reach Stornoway, the island's main town, by bus; Elliott Armen began his 200-kilometer walk there, across splendid landscapes resembling a Celtic desert. After pitching his tent under the stars for twelve days, he arrived at his destination, imbued with the archipelago. It was then that he immersed himself in complete silence to record this new opus. A journey through grief, love, and solitude. A translation of the immense landscapes that populate the Celtic lands. *Turbulence* is an ode to melancholy as a driver of joy, where guitars, pianos, drums, and an ethereal voice blend to deliver this particular, enveloping, and timeless atmosphere, unique to Elliott Armen.
