California-born, Manchester-based singer-songwriter Jesca Hoop has announced the release of Selective Memory - a live, unplugged reworking of her acclaimed 2017 Memories Are Now (Sub Pop).

Joining the cast of stripped back album versions for her first three releases, this new collection finds Hoop and her two bandmates, Chloe Foy and Rachel Rimmer, capturing the record in its entirety live in Hoop’s Manchester home.

Opening the door to an intimate performance space, Selective Memory shines a new light on one of Hoop’s most beloved albums. Raw and immediate in its delivery, the record brims with luminous harmonies, lyrical richness and unguarded emotion. It is sweet and bitter, fresh and raw, and very much of the moment.

Though a return to songs first written over a decade ago, Hoop notes their continued urgency. “Though I wrote these songs 12 years ago, strangely they feel so very relevant to me today. And the album ends in one hell of a protest song… if I do say so myself.”

Selective Memory follows Hoop’s stripped-back renditions of her first three records, aligning with that same “rough and ready” aesthetic that prizes sincerity over polish. It also gestures toward a fertile new chapter, arriving as a prelude to a wave of fresh work from the artist.

Hoop’s story is one of music finding its way to the right ears. Discovered by Tom Waits, invited on tour by Peter Gabriel, and encouraged to relocate to the UK by Elbow’s Guy Garvey, Hoop has since carved out a singular path across six albums of original material. Collaborations with producers John Parish (PJ Harvey), Blake Mills (Feist), and Tony Berg (Phoebe Bridgers) have only sharpened the intricacy of her craft. Her expertly constructed songs, rooted in folk but reaching fearlessly outward, are harmonic curiosities teeming with bright ideas and rich emotions.
