Holly Moore - FLOOD (2024) Hi Res

‘FLOOD’ is a nostalgic soundscape, celebrating the complexity of seemingly simple melodies, and the beauty, decay, and fragility in a single note. As a counterpoint to the destabilising amount of discourse and targeted messaging in daily life, Holly Moore focuses on the raw sounds of the saxophone, capturing a feeling of reminiscence and rebirth. Moore’s compositions on ‘FLOOD’ speak to themes of love, loss, and displacement, as a reflection of new changes and stages of life. Through a series of ballads and anthems, ‘FLOOD’ is an open, honest, and generous expression of Moore’s lived experience as an Australian improviser and musician, while also being a lateral extension of a current language of expression that is representative of a new generation in Melbourne Jazz.
