Bye Bye Jackie is, at its core, a record about love-its beauty, its fragility, its failures-it's also about trying to love in a world that often feels too fast, too rigid, too distracted for someone who's always felt a little different.
That tension runs through every note: the ache of connection, the quiet question of belonging. Bye Bye Jackie, Laura-Mary's debut solo album, peels back the noise. It's more intimate. More reflective.

Written across hotel rooms, green rooms, and quiet moments at home, the songs were born on a Spanish nylon-string guitar and shaped during a two-week session in Hackney, London, where Laura-Mary teamed up with Oscar Robertson (sholto) and David Bardon (sunglasses for jaws) on production-both known for their adventurous and experimental approaches to sound.
IDLES' Lee Kiernan features on June Gloom, adding a stormy edge to one of the record's standout tracks.

The sound draws from a wide net of influences-channeling the hazy melancholia of The Velvet Underground, the dreamy sincerity of The Ronettes, and the lo-fi emotional punch of Beck at his most stripped back. It's music that feels timeless and out of time, steeped in nostalgia but pulsing with emotional immediacy Bye Bye Jackie is the sound of someone letting go-of relationships, expectations, versions of the self that no longer fit.
It's a love letter, a breakup note, and a quiet manifesto for anyone who's lived a life slightly off the
map.
