Susannah Joffe – Your Mother’s Name

Review

Susannah Joffe's 'Your Mother's Name' EP clocks in at just 21 minutes, but those six songs pack a quiet punch that sticks with you through the day. Tracks like 'My Dog Died' and 'Deer in Headlights' wrap you in this hazy, reflective mood, perfect for those evenings when life's little losses hit home. It's like she's whispering stories from her own backyard, full of that everyday ache we all know too well. Her voice stays close, raw and real, letting the vulnerability shine without overdoing it.

Then there's 'Die Your Daughter' and 'I'd Hate Me Too', where she mixes sharp wit into the self-examination, making you nod along to the tangled bits of who we are. 'My Football Team' sneaks in that slice of normal life, grounding everything in relatable quirks, while the title track ties it all with a gentle pull on family threads. The whole thing feels focused and unhurried, like a friend sharing over coffee. You walk away feeling seen, ready for whatever comes next. - Rory
