Self Esteem
Monday 4th March
at Banquet Records, 6:00pm
In the week her debut solo album is released, Self Esteem, otherwise known as Rebecca Lucy Taylor, makes a welcome return to the shop. We've been big fans for a long while and she's played in Kingston plenty of times as part of Slow Club - we can't wait to hear how she has transformed her powerhouse songwriting for this solo LP.
Since her musical divergence from the band, Rebecca has revelled in unleashing a whole version of herself with no compromises, no reducing herself, no hesitating. She would go on to write the songs that had been rising up inside her all through the years - big songs, that spoke of love and sex and chaos, that brought in huge basslines, gospel choirs, the kind of polished, provocative production she admired on the biggest pop records.
In-store Grade B.
Priority will be given to anyone who orders a copy of Compliments Please from us.

Following on from the excellent 2019 debut album Pleasure Please, Self Esteem is back with another offering.
Prioritise Pleasure is a record that reminds us all of the importance of being our unapologetic selves, putting your insecurities out there in the hope that it can be the first step towards healing them. Honest disclosure has always been Self Esteem’s forte, and so each track on Prioritise Pleasure handles difficult themes with nuanced perspective, comforted and counter-balanced with an array of rhythmic flourishes that speak to the eclecticism of her experience and influence.
Having allowed itself grace, Prioritise Pleasure is also a record of great joy. Working again with trusted producer Johan Karlberg [of afro-fusion trio The Very Best], it was stitched together throughout the pandemic in chunked sessions, the time between each batch encouraging Taylor to fully flesh out her ideas. With Prioritise Pleasure, Self Esteem comes one step closer to reminding listeners – and herself – that true success begins and ends with self- acceptance, telling your story in the way that only you can.
