Nerina Pallot, the critically acclaimed singer-songwriter known for her heartfelt lyrics and soul-stirring melodies, returns with her eighth studio album, A Psalm for Emily Salvi, set for release on November 1st, 2024. Pallot will also embark on a UK tour in February 2025, alongside two intimate one-woman shows in London this December.

A celebrated artist in the music industry, Nerina Pallot has traversed an extraordinary journey. From her breakout success with Fires in the mid-2000s, which earned her Top 40 hits and nominations for both an Ivor Novello Award and a Brit Award, to collaborating with artists like Kylie Minogue, her career has been anything but ordinary. Yet, Pallot remains grounded, her work a reflection of life’s ups and downs, its beauty and heartbreak.

The creation of her latest album, A Psalm for Emily Salvi, is a deeply personal endeavour. Born from an unexpected connection, the record is both a love letter to those who have supported her over the years and a tribute to the power of music in the face of adversity. One day, Pallot received a message from a woman named Emily, who shared how Pallot’s music had been a lifeline during her darkest moments. That message became the catalyst for the album, a reminder of the importance of perseverance, connection, and vulnerability.

The first single to be taken from the album, ‘Regrets’, is an upbeat Gospel-infused pop gem, ruminating on the conundrum that a life well lived cannot come without its trade-offs. ‘If you don’t question what you’ve done with your life, are you even alive?’ asks Pallot of the listener.

Reflecting on her career, Pallot muses on the dichotomy of success in the music industry. For every sold-out show at the London Palladium, there is the memory of performing to a handful of people in less-than-glamorous conditions. For every viral cover, like her rendition of Joy Division’s Love Will Tear Us Apart, there are songs that barely make a ripple. But it is this very unpredictability that makes Pallot’s journey so profoundly human. Her music is not crafted for the fleeting fame of the digital age but for the souls who find solace in her words and melodies.

“I made this album for myself and for Emily Salvi (not her actual name) —whoever she may truly be. And for all the Emily Salvis out there, who need a reminder that they’re not alone. This album is for them.”

Nerina Pallot’s music transcends the superficial metrics of modern success, resonating instead on a deeper, emotional level with those who listen. Whether you’ve been following her for years or are just discovering her work, A Psalm for Emily Salvi is an invitation to connect with something real.
