On her brand new album This Place, Reeya Banerjee proves that home isn’t always a fixed location. Home can be a feeling, a memory or even a song. The record is equal parts intimate reflection and widescreen arena rock.

The album opens with an immediacy that pulls the listener into Banerjee’s world. Her vocals are warm, commanding and human, serving as the album’s compass and guiding us through songs of transition, loss, resilience and love that holds steady through change.

Standout tracks like “Snow” shimmers with atmosphere, while “Misery of Place” rides a darker, restless energy that nods to Banerjee’s rock instincts. “For The First Time” finds strength in its vulnerability, and the closing track “Upstate Rust” is nothing short of an anthem – its soaring choruses and full band firepower leave the listener uplifted and changed. Each track carries its own weight, but together they form a cohesive narrative about moving forwards while carrying the places and people that have shaped you.

The album fuses indie rock grit with dreamlike textures, bringing in influences that range from R.E.M. to Florence + The Machine without ever losing Banerjee’s distinctive voice. Her longtime collaborators in The Merseyside Darby breathe life into the musical arrangements, their chemistry palpable in every layered harmony and guitar lines.

What makes This Place so striking is not just its richness and emotional generosity. Banerjee doesn’t shy away from complexity. She embraces it, creating a body of work that feels both grounded and expansive. This is the kind of album that grows with each listen, offering new corners to explore and moments to hold close.

This Place is a record about movement, memory and the enduring beauty of connection. It’s like a map of the heart.
