Lillian King delivered a profound collection of ten songs on her debut album ‘In Your Long Shadow’ released through the Pronounced Kroog label. This record serves as a clear-eyed reflection on family and the passage of time following the loss of her father. King spent a decade refining her songwriting through solo sets across Canada and the United States before entering the studio with producer Jack Henry. The track listing includes the central focus track “Shadow” along with previous singles “Tiber Creek” and “Echo” which highlight her understated yet soulful vocal delivery.

The musical arrangements benefit from the atmospheric keys of Nick DePrey and the rhythmic contributions of Robert Salazar. This collaboration results in a grounded sound that moves seamlessly between sparse folk ballads and textured full-band sections. The sonic landscape of this record is a brilliant achievement in emotional honesty and musical restraint. Support for the project came from Spencer Krug who signed King after a successful tour pairing. The final product reflects a career built on genuine storytelling and the quiet rituals of daily life.
