Description
Blood Orange’s 'Essex Honey' is an intimate and elegiac return from Devonté Hynes, blending personal reflection with communal resonance. His first album in six years, it explores grief, memory, and belonging through lush analog production, recurring cello motifs, and gentle nods to the music of his youth in Essex, England. The record feels both diaristic and collective—its textures glowing with warmth, imperfection, and emotional precision.
Featuring an inspired ensemble that includes Lorde, Caroline Polachek, Daniel Caesar, Mustafa, and Brendan Yates, 'Essex Honey' expands Blood Orange’s sonic palette while preserving his signature dreamlike sensitivity. From the fragile “Look at You” to the haunting “The Last of England” and the cinematic “The Train (King’s Cross),” the album balances melancholy with hope, exploring how sound itself can become a form of healing. A meditation on loss, place, and creative endurance, 'Essex Honey' stands as one of Hynes’ most graceful and human works.
