Nadia Reid's debut record arrived late in 2015, and despite being warmly received it did seem to suffer slightly from the swathe of best-of lists that tend to dominate the music press at the end of the year.
Nevertheless, it was an excellent debut from the then 24-year-old, especially given that some of the songs on the record were written by Reid at a remarkably young age.
Listen to Formation, Look for the Signs displayed an impressively assured approach to the kind of new folk that artists like Laura Marling have had such success with.
Lyrically, it often exhibited maturity beyond her years, but also frequently found her wrestling with uncertainties about relationships and exposed a suspicious attitude toward love.
Whereas her debut found her stumbling into the world confused, startled, and not yet fully formed (albeit articulating it rather brilliantly), Preservation finds Reid less reactive and more reflective.
