A new interview with Coeur de Pirate about ‘Child of Light’ and her other work, in English on the Canadian music blog Noisey.com, is worth reading. It is by Jesse Ship, a Toronto journalist, and was published on 12 May 2014. Go to:

We learn that CdP was approached to work on the music for ‘Child of Light’ in Autumn 2012 just after her daughter was born and worked on it for a year. She discusses the commission in some detail.
She also talks about her next album:
“I’m still writing it, and would like to go into studio in the summer and we’re looking for a realisateur/producer, someone to make the songs happen, but it’s going to be bilingual. That’s a lot of stress and excitement but hopefully it should be ok. I might bring back the piano as I let it go for the last album, Blonde. I really got into Nina Simone, random percussion, and using other voices to use as instruments. I’d love to get into mixing folk and traditional chants.”
And read to the end where she talks about ‘always having music in my head’.
