January 2023, Dorset. Snow is piled at the door, icy roads are closed, and Emily Cross is in a coffin. Not a setting typical for a rebirth. But for Loma, this is where they bring their band back from the brink. Following the release of their 2020 second album Don't Shy Away, Loma's three members were cast around the globe and the band entered a deep sleep. With minimal recording gear and few instruments, Loma turned two whitewashed rooms into a makeshift studio. The one-lane roads, hedgerows and dark skies of Dorset gave the new songs an ineffable but unmistakable Englishness. What emerged was How Will I Live Without A Body?: a gorgeous, unique, and oddly comforting album about partnership, loss, regeneration, and the feeling that we're all in this alone. Inspired by Laurie Anderson, Loma's new music captures the essence of reconnecting and navigating the complexities of shared pasts. This record reflects deep calm and relief after a tough journey together.
