Mary Lattimore

Mary Lattimore is an experimental harpist and composer living in Los Angeles.

Memories, scenes, and split-second impressions have long filled Lattimore’s musical universe. As one of today’s preeminent instrumental storytellers, she has “the uncanny ability to pluck a string in a way that will instantly make someone remember the taste of their fifth birthday cake,” writes Pitchfork’s Jemima Skala.

Silver Ladders, her third LP on Ghostly, sees Lattimore arriving at her most confident work to date, expanding her style of instrumental storytelling with the help of producer and guitarist Neil Halstead (Slowdive, Mojave 3). Recorded in Halstead’s studio near an old English surftown just before lockdown, the songs on Silver Ladders reflect Lattimore’s vivid memories against the gloom and glimmer of the ocean.

“Weaving webs of hypnotic splendour from an ambient drone foundation, harpist and composer Mary Lattimore’s singular mastery of her craft knows few equals across the experimental and alt. folk spectrum.” - ⭐⭐⭐⭐ NARC

“The sublime Goodbye, Hotel Arkada has a fondness for abstraction, but touches upon something that is very tangible - and very personal. It’s the kind of record you feel welcome to attach your inner monologue, your memories and meanings to.” - 5/5, Shindig! Magazine

“Lush, gently psychedelic ambience, a floatboat dream.” - Uncut
