Forever in Your Melodies is a pre-recorded acoustic live performance conducted by singer songwriter Jodie Reid in her home environment. It showcases songs from two of her albums namely: ‘Secondary Sight’ and ‘Celtic Commotion’.
The songs performed from Secondary Sight are predominantly emotion based and explore themes such as anxiety, loneliness and determination. The second section explores the stories of Celtic Commotion, focusing on the lives and situations of imaginary characters set in the Medieval Era. The melodic narratives of ‘Una on the Isle’ and ‘The Cloaked Man’ offer audiences a different perspective and potentially a form of escapism from the modern world. In addition to her originals, she performs a rendition of two of her favourite songs: ‘I Miss You’ – Blink 182 and ‘Trøllabundin’ – Eivør. With a somewhat DIY approach, Jodie attempts to create a comfortable environment in which audiences can explore and discover the links between contrasting genres of music.
