Outside Child, says Russell “is about resilience, survival, transcendence, the redemptive power of art, community, connection, and chosen family.” Singing about this on “Nightflyer,” Russell ponders the healing power of motherhood, using the track’s wide-open expanse to convey the strength she didn’t know she had. Here, the line “I am the mother of the evening star / I am the love that conquers all” is “the most defiantly triumphant, hopeful line I've ever written…that's about the birth of my daughter and how that transformed me.” Though they had a fraught relationship, Russell remembers how she’d crawl underneath the piano and listen to her own mother play. “I would hum along with her,” Russell recalls. “She said I was humming before I could talk. I was able to feel some kind of comfort or love or connection in a way that she couldn't verbally or physically express - but I could feel in her music that there was love in her.”

Allison Russell's second solo album is a jaw-dropper—and a heart-pumper, thought-provoker and ass-shaker. The charm turns on right away with enchanting and syncopated "Springtime" and its sound of shedding burden: "So long, farewell, adieu, adieu/ To that tunnel I went through/ And my reward, my recompense?/ Springtime of my present tense." The song is further warmed by the sound of Russell's clarinet opening up the gates for a full-throated musical expanse featuring Sista Strings and Wendy & Lisa on guitar and piano, respectively. The former Revolution members, who play on nearly every song, belong here—much of Returner boasts a Prince vibe, circa groovy Around the World in a Day.
