Pratt, whose new album, “Here in the Pitch,” is an anachronistic, dreamlike blend of folk music and chamber pop, no longer exists as a true outsider herself.

The music, blending indie folk, alt rock and chamber pop, creates space for collective reflection.

Where Geese’s wigged-out strain of progressive post-punk, with hints of MC5 and the Velvet Underground, packed more confrontational punch, Black Country, New Road dazzled with their carefully constructed blend of post-punk, chamber pop, jazz and even folksy classical music.

The band’s 2022 album, “Everything Will Be,” features a jaunty, half-country instrumental and a mock cowboy lament, but also ventures into chamber pop and several varieties of jazz.

The band's first record after announcing their retirement from live performance, it saw them explore new sonic territories and styles of composition, from the chamber pop of Eleanor Rigby to the kaleidoscopic eruptions of Tomorrow Never Knows.
