Pearlies was produced and mixed by James Chapman (aka Maps) and features Richard Oakes from Suede on guitar on several tracks. It was released last October to universal praise. \”A triumphant solo debut. Pearlies has more the feel of a wistful autumnal folk record than any kind of 90s throwback MOJO Genuinely bewitching, reminiscent of the folk-horror sides of Goldfrapp and 4 Broadcast and full of pretty melodies with foreboding underbellies, like TV theme tunes beamed in from an alternate dimension Loud And Quiet A terrific album. A crisply contemporary take on British psychedelia Electronic Sound While Pearlies invites comparisons with music by Lushs many dream-pop descendants, Anderson finds intriguing ways of deviating from those templates. Shes able to nudge the guitar pedals aside and demonstrate that her music still has other places to go Uncut A delight. A belated, albeit reconfigured, continuation of what the Lush reunion might have evolved into The Arts Desk Its a successful enough reinvention for Anderson surely to be wondering why she didnt make a solo record sooner The Observer The albums 10 songs form a loose narrative of journeys and experiences coming to an end, yet at the same time Pearlies points to a bright and fulfilling solo future Record Collector
