Following London-born Nerina Pallot's career is like watching a coming-of-age movie, so involving are the singer/songwriter's musical developments. From the earnest, band-led pop of 2001's Dear Frustrated Superstar, a natural progression saw the gently intimate Year of the Wolf—named for her newborn son—preempt tougher productions and darker subjects. Matching her more confident, throaty vocals, 2015's The Sound and the Fury eschewed euphoric ballads in favour of often electronic-spattered, restless songs, which continued her evolution.
