"When I was eight, I built a raft at the bottom of the garden from a bit of old fence," Polly recalls. "I nagged my mum to take it down to the river. She eventually gave in but she insisted it had to be attached to a rope and she would hold on to it. So I hid a pair of scissors in my pocket. I was planning to cut the rope and sail off to London. I didn't get very far. But I had the same feeling towards making this record. It was about defiance and taking your life in your own hands. I was a real handful, I can tell you."
Polly Paulusma's debut album Scissors In My Pocket announces the arrival of one of the most exciting new British talents in years, a singer-songwriter whose craft belongs to a classic lineage that stretches back to the likes of Joni Mitchell, Cat Stevens and Carole King and yet brings an entirely contemporary edge and vitality to a timeless art form.
