Taking inspiration from filmmakers, electronic artists, and folksingers alike, Hilary Woods crafts intimate, nocturnal, keyboard-based songs and noise experiments as a solo artist. After scoring two Top 20 albums as the bassist for Irish indie rock band JJ72 in the early 2000s, she quit the music business, re-emerging in 2014 with her gentler if dissonant soundscapes. Woods made her full-length solo debut with Colt in 2018. Eschewing song form by her third album, 2023's Acts of Light was a set of drone-anchored dirges featuring electronics, strings, field recordings, and multiple choirs among its components.
