Revelations

Daphne Guinness somehow resists definition. There's the close friendships with Alexander McQueen and Isabella Blow, the various collaborations with artists & designers, alongside well-respected ventures in the world of film, with Guinness' name appearing on the back of the Oscar-nominated Cashback, which she co-produced, alongside a role in art film The Murder of Jean Seberg. Daphne recorded the album at Les Studios Saint Germain, Paris - working once again with David Bowie producer Tony Visconti, also at the helm for Guinness' previous two critically-acclaimed albums. As hinted by illusory lead single & title track 'Revelations' - couched in Visconti's lush orchestrations, and for which Daphne cites both Gainsbourg's 'L'Histoire de Melody Nelson' & J.S. Bach as inspirations. Subsequent single release 'Deviant Disco' also features in a new art-film project - nominated for this year's Berlin Music Video Awards - created by Daphne with another of her long-term collaborators, David LaChapelle, who also oversaw the surreal clip for the single 'Evening in Space' lifted from Daphne's 2016 debut album.
