Influenced by Sade, Etta James, Bill Withers, Fela Kuti. Adaeze Umbra was raised in Manchester's Moss Side, translating council forms for her Nigerian parents by day and memorizing their Stax records by night. She found her voice somewhere between the post-industrial grey of the North and the vibrant Igbo culture of her home. After dropping out of a literature degree, she began writing songs while working in a fabric shop, turning the textures of her two worlds into a powerful, contemporary soul music. Her songs are for anyone who's ever felt like a translator in their own life.

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The last box of chicken from the shop on Curry Mile
Went cold on the dash of your Ford for a while.
Your hands gripped the wheel, ten and two, in the haze
Of a Tuesday in March, at the end of its days.

[Chorus]
And the words were all woven,
A ghost seam between us, unspoken.
A silence we tailored and wore for a prize.

[Verse 2]
The damp wool smell of your coat in the heat,
The low Metrolink rattle far down the street.
You turned in your seat, said, "'You're quiet tonight.'"
I almost asked then in the dim dashboard light
If this whole design was a lie I'd been fed.

[Chorus]
But the words were all woven,
A ghost seam between us, unspoken.
A silence we tailored and wore for a prize.

[Bridge]
(Beat switches: intimate acoustic drops for a heavy-swing trap beat & 808)
And it's strange, looking back now from this side of the tear,
How pulling that one single thread was my fear.

[Outro]
(Beat fades out, leaving a single whistled melody)
Some fabrics are woven to just come undone.
