Yoshika Colwell - On The Wing (2025) [Official Digital Download 24/48]

A captivating and sophisticated collection of eleven songs that traverse the outer regions of folk, On The Wing is a record of acceptance and self-discovery, rooted in solitude and personal healing, from one of the UK’s most exciting new singer- songwriters.

Life, for us all, comes in seasons: the bitter frosts and balmy awakenings that herald the literal passing of time, but also the periods of retreat and re-emergence that bookmark our own individual paths along this mortal coil. For Yoshika, the last decade has found her existing at both ends of the spectrum. Following a period of complete dislocation fuelled by a move to a new town, lockdown and a traumatic break-up all striking in quick succession, it would take a stretch of restorative isolation to bring her back to full creative and personal health. Now, however, all of that sadness and pain, acceptance and slow-dawning hope has been channeled into On The Wing.

Produced by Oli Bayston (Barry Can't Swim, Rachel Chinouriri), the album was recorded at Studio Orbb, where Yoshika recorded her critically acclaimed debut EP ‘There’s A Time’. Since then, a string of releases have seen support from The New Cue, BBC 6Music, Paste, The Line of Best Fit and Stereogum, to name a few, whilst Yoshika has played her first shows in the US at SXSW and a sold-out London headline at the Moth Club. This summer she plays The Great Escape, Moseley Folk Festival and End of the Road.
