Open the Door is the debut album from London songwriter Tilly Scantlebury (they/them) as Lazy Day. Bold and bright indie rock with a canny ear for a hook - the project, now ten years old, feels as though it reaches full fruition here. In the process, it marks Scantlebury out as a fresh, singular voice and a real one to watch.It follows EPs including 2017's Ribbons and 2019's Letters -early releases that saw them heralded by critics as "A lo-fi dream pop force to be reckoned with" (Under the Radar) and "combining theintrospection of Elliott Smith, the reverb-drenched resonance of Slowdive and the wonky pop sensibility of Kate Bush" (Noisey). Their first studio album remains dazzlingly Lazy Day, with the volume and saturation turned all the way up.Newly married, out as non-binary, and with a completed PhD under their belt, Open the Door finds them occupying their queerness and it's constant evolution (questions are posed, answered, left open; "I" and "you" mean something slightly different on each song), and finding validation in that. They are happiest in the domestic (as we hear on upcoming single 'Squirm'), exploring all the corners of their identity, from masculinity to their Jewishness (recent single 'Killer All The Things That I Love'), and keen to steer the ship, by motivating their loved ones and listeners alike (as on 'Strangest Relief, when they sing: "Take the good when it's found / I just want you around / Getting stronger").
