On her birthday 7-7 i'm sort-of rediscovering this lady... bloom de wilde she calls herself now.
at the time of her debut album Zink in 1997, many björk fans who came across bloem were annoyed, caller her a copy-cat... I always saw through it, always will defend her because i just know that she is nothing but herself. Any resemblance is pure genetic coincidence.
which doesn't mean i don't experience it myself, especially when seeing her live... but i just call it magic
For years now she has been in the english ska party band sam and the womp - and i thought her making beautiful music on her own was long gone over and done with.
How wrong i was! there is some amazing new (2019) solo music of her. check this out:
