Sophie Ellis-Bextor Instagram – Sometimes there’s a sprinkle of serendipity that really ties a creative project together. Releasing ‘Perimenopop’ as autumn arrives and the leaves change colour is absolutely perfect and it feels so right.
This 8th album was born out of many things… looking back to when Murder and its friends were first released with Read My Lips in 2001, the relationships I started around that time which have given me so much support and fun, thinking over the chapters of your life which you pass through consciously and unconsciously, and what gifts come with getting older. Knowing yourself, feeling a little more fearless, and understanding what magic lies in everyday joy.. these are the senses I have poured into song.
I was also inspired my many people around me. Incredible women I’ve spoken to for the Spinning Plates podcast, brilliant bold artists both older and younger who blaze a trail, creatives who I love, and the wonderful friends and family I have in my life.
Pop – I’ve always loved you, but as the seasons change you’ve really allowed me to celebrate the things that matter to me.
Here’s to my Perimenopop Autumn.
Oh, I found my first conkers today, too. | Posted on 12/Sep/2025 20:58:26
