Hilary Woods is an Irish musician and artist whose evocative work spans across a variety of aural landscapes, encapsulating elements of indie, ambient, and experimental music. With a career that initially took off in the 1990s as the bassist for the alternative rock band JJ72, Woods later carved her own solitary path, focusing on a more introspective and atmospheric approach to songwriting. Her solo endeavors explore the quieter interstices of emotion, utilizing a minimalist palette to create mood-driven compositions.
After her tenure with JJ72 concluded, Woods returned to music with a contemplative and deeply personal orientation. Her debut solo album "Colt," released in 2018, was lauded for its hauntingly sparse arrangements and Woods' ability to craft an intimate narrative with sound. It set the tone for her subsequent releases which continued to delve into themes of motherhood, nature, and existential longing. By the time she released "Birthmarks" in 2020, Woods had established herself as a formidable voice in ambient and experimental music. Her most recent works, such as "Acts of Light," retain her signature ethereal vocals and introspective lyricism, while exploring new textures and soundscapes, affirming her place as a captivating artist in the realm of avant-garde music.
