Maintaining the elegance of her folk-soul beginnings, the Londoner explores bolder directions on her second album. Announcing this new daring, the psychedelic soul of opener “Unstoppable” slips into a warm, snapping groove on “Green & Gold.” From the gritty pop strut of “What You Don’t Do” to the delicate “Wonderful,” Blood’s changing tones suit an agile voice that can shift from fragility to fire in a captivating instant.
