Fort Worth's Rachel Gollay Seeks Release in Tension on New Album The Edge of April

, is right there in the title of its opening song: “Optimistic ,” dropped — fittingly — at the tail end of March.

“Russell asked the questions, ‘What do we want to get from this album? What do we want from the process?’ And we unanimously agreed that we wanted to really take our time enjoying the process of collaboration, and make songs that we love listening to,” Gollay said via email. “While I like to perform, creating the music in the first place has become my favorite aspect, so we really embraced that.”

“That all comes through in personal and universal ways in the record, and much of it I’m not usually fully conscious of until I sit down and process it with Russell.”Three records in, it’s safe to say Jack is as essential to the sound and feel of Gollay as the singer and songwriter — a sentiment with which Gollay readily agrees.

Those shapes have steadily evolved over a decade, as Gollay has consistently broadened her stylistic palette from her debut onward, incorporating new approaches while retaining the core of her songcraft. “Ready,” a late album highlight, finds Gollay stepping almost fully into an electronic realm more often associated with the likes of Tame Impala or MGMT than with a primarily acoustic-based singer-songwriter from Fort Worth’s Near Southside.
