Natalie Imbruglia’s New Album Proves She’s still in the game

More than 20 years later, the Australian singer-songwriter is still making music, releasing her sixth studio album on Friday (24th September 2021). “Firebird” is Imbruglia’s first record of original music since 2009 which was written before the Covid-19 pandemic, but mostly recorded during the lockdown in Oxfordshire, England, where she lives. “I just feel so excited to have a body of work that is so personal to me but that I’m so proud of,” the 46-year-old said in an interview. “I had writer’s block for so long… I just want people to hear the album. I just can’t wait.” Her lockdown recording sessions were a blessing in disguise, Imbruglia said, as she could tweak her work more than usual and spend time with her son Max Valentine Imbruglia, whose birth she announced via Instagram in October 2019. “I was a new mum at the period of time where you don’t really want to be leaving your child, so it kind of was brilliant because I could record a vocal and go and have a cuddle and then come back,” she said. During her pregnancy, Imbruglia shared that she conceived with the help of IVF and a sperm donor.
