Margaux, Lily Seabird

About

“Inside the Marble” is Margaux’s first full-length studio LP. The album is her most mature and inspired work to date–at times breathlessly intimate, at other times sweeping and orchestral. Although the album navigates heartbreak through songs like “Ships” and “DNA,” it is more than a breakup album. Margaux also wrestles with the anxieties of how we grow up and build a life of our own. How we teeter between confrontation and avoidance (in “Dissolve / Resolve”) and end up hiding behind the boundaries we’ve drawn (in “What Could I Say?”). In Margaux’s own words: “The album’s common thread is really about making sense of big feelings. I do love songwriting as a craft but I think a lot of the time it is something I turn to amidst a spike in emotion, whether that is rooted in heartbreak, dread, feelings of love, or angst… these things can feel so unruly inside. Writing these songs has helped me gain a sense of direction and clarity in moments that have otherwise felt like complete internal chaos.” In that sense, the album’s title refers not only to its cloudy, rolling vortex of indecision and fear–it also refers (somewhat tongue in cheek) to the idea of “losing ones marbles.” On nights surrounded by tangled cables and piling laundry, these ten songs gave Margaux a reason to pull through the worst pangs of heartache and post-graduate dread.
