★★★★
Still criminally neglected in the UK, though she’s a radio star in her native Ireland and adopted Germany, Wallis Bird switches her focus on her seventh album –a move signalled by its title and cover, which put the finger she lost as a baby centre stage – to more introspective themes than 2018’s soulful Home and 2019’s politically charged Woman.
