On her debut LP ‘Memoria’, songwriter/producer Lilian Mikorey aka PILLBERT contemplates themes of identity and belonging, hardships and heartbreak in her signature blend of bendy folk guitars, field recordings and intimate vocals.

Moving to London from Munich, not yet 20 years old, Mikorey realized she was leaving her home behind for good. The subsequent state of being lost and alone in a place too temporary to start building the foundation for a new one led her to question the concept of home itself.  Is it friends? Family? A house?

She started recording the sounds of the objects she had gathered and of her surroundings, building an archive and sonic material to work with. From her mid-teens she had learned to produce with Ableton and now she picked up the guitar, too, learning it autodidactically by playing around, creating sounds.At some point in the process, she realized it’s okay to be lost for a while and by enduring the feeling, there’s room for something new to grow, far off from any general idea of what home should mean.

The album, over the course of 10 tracks, traces these three phases of building a home in your head, realizing it’s not a remedy, nor forever and coming to terms with it. You’ve grown in the process and the album is a guiding light for everyone who strives to do so, too.
