]]> Lavender Bones is the recording project of New York-based musician Janise Lazarte. Having experimented with a variety of instruments, Lazarte found a real affinity with the guitar and began writing songs through college, debuting them at open mics, something which continued through a post-college move to Manhattan.

Gradually, music began to be a larger force in her life, and Lazarte enlisted her sister and friend to play under the name Until Love. The band did not last, but that Lazarte felt compelled to continue writing and playing after it had faltered was proof of her commitment to the craft. Soon she adopted the moniker Lavender Bones, and her creative style was cemented.

This month sees the release of the debut Lavender Bones EP, Quiet Steady Love, and today we’re delighted to share ‘Over Again’, the second single from the release. The oldest track that appears on the EP, the song was originally written in the aftermath of a break-up back in 2014, it being one of the songs Lazarte played at various open mics before shelving it for a number of years.

It wasn’t until 2018 that the song re-emerged, repurposed to serve an entirely different function and meaning. Cathartic the track might still be, but rather than operating within the bitterness and loss of the immediate fallout, it forms an ode to a time of life that is now relegated to the past. As such, the melancholic tones bear a secondary kind of joy, a testament to the process of healing and moving on.

Quiet Steady Love will be released on the 31st May via Don’t Label Me Records.
