Streaming over 600K/week “…a hauntingly beautiful collection of Americana gold, and likely Passenger’s finest and most focused record yet.” - Glide Read Joe Henry’s words on Allison Russell’s solo debut Outside Child “Though deep and wide may be the world, it is within dim and narrow rooms ––airless and mundane–– that the true stories of our lives are enacted; are bartered and brokered –– enslaved and empowered; held in and sung out. And Song most surely began as a cry or a prayer ––though no need discerning between the two, for they are the same ––and both sacred: the prayer and the wail becoming Song as soon as shared. Some of us come, later in life, to find our knees; while others slip young into trauma like a quarry stone gone under, held down by the weight of their own world. Many of those, alas, never come back up. But those able are wont to be luminous, struggle having landed their hearts on the outside of their bodies: a swinging lantern within that aforementioned dim room ––where stories are unraveled, thus to be reconstructed... purposefully reanimated. It was also within such a room that Allison Russell ––singer, songwriter, poet, and activist–– bore witness to herself in descent. But the abused child she was played mother to the brave woman and fierce artist she would become ––surviving being one of only two options, and not the most likely. Blessed be. Allison’s new album, Outside Child ––that draws water from the dark well of a violent past–– is her first solo offering, she also being a pivotal voice in two bands: Birds of Chicago and Our Native Daughters. And telling her own story sounds now to have made her free –– not from it all, but free within it: to reframe and reclaim her identity and its singular authority. The songs themselves ––though iron-hard in their concerns–– are exultant: exercising haunted dream like clean bedsheets snapped and hung out into broad daylight, and with the romantic poet’s lust for living and audacity of endurance. Nina Simone comes to mind, as well Edith Piaf: two shamanistic practitioners who turned their faces into the blade of storm and roared back dig- nity and hope. This music, no less ––no less–– is a triumph: a courageous work ––burnished and bright; unspeakably beautiful as she sings the unspeakable. Above all, it is an act of remarkable generosity: a cathartic, soulful, buoyant and redeeming gift to us all and, one must believe, to herself as well.” -Joe Henry Bath, Maine Harper’s Bazaar looks at Julien Baker’sLittle Oblivions through the lens of faith “On the second track of Julien Baker’s third album, Little Oblivions, a car engine catches fire and doubt filters in through the smoke.

  • Smörgåsbord: Lucy Dacus Displays Her Range with New EP “2019”
    Smörgåsbord: Lucy Dacus displays her range with new EP “2019” graphic by Jennifer Ren Indie rock singer-songwriter Lucy Dacus has been steadily climbing her way into the spotlight. Her “2019” EP dropped November 8, capitalizing on her streak of popularity. Last year her sophomore record “Historian” hit #39 on the UK Independent Albums chart. She also debuted the band boygenius with fellow indie musicians Phoebe Bridgers and Julien Baker to widespread acclaim. Most recently, on the same night of her EP release, Dacus opened for alternative pop star Lana Del Rey’s live show at Chicago’s Aragon Ballroom, and was invited to perform her song “Night Shift” during the show itself. In such a time when critics and fans alike are singing Dacus’ praises, her latest work only compounds her relevancy. “2019” is a collection of three original tracks and four covers, each themed around holidays or other days of the year significant to Dacus. Over the course of its namesake year, Dacus released almost every song close in date to its respective inspiration. The exception was the EP-exclusive “Fool’s Gold,” a melancholy tribute to New Year’s. She started off this project back in February, releasing a cover of the romantic classic “La Vie Smörgåsbord: Lucy Dacus displays her range with new EP “2019” En Rose” for Valentine’s Day. This song has been performed and recorded by many since its original release in 1947, but Dacus’ take is unique to her style and sound. She utilizes the guitar-driven indie rock that she built her name off to turn the popular cover into a track that could have been an original.

  • Zola.’ (AP) Song of the Summer
    ARAB TIMES, THURSDAY, JULY 1, 2021 NEWS/FEATURES 13 People & Places Music Dacus sings young love Cat album falters at fi rst but ends strong By Mark Kennedy ot to be totally catty, but Doja Cat’s third album Nstarts poorly. The first four songs — “Woman,” “Naked,” “Payday” with Young Thug and “Get Into It (Yuh)” — are half-baked tunes mimicking beats and vocals from Nicki Minaj or Rihanna. None are note- worthy. It’s depressing. What happened to the artist behind 2019s “Hot Pink,” a sonic breath of fresh air? What happened to the Doja Cat whose electric performance of “Say So” at the Grammys was reminiscent of Missy Elliott’s futurism? Just wait. The fi fth song, “Need to Know,” is a superb, steamy sex tape of a song (with Dr. Luke co-writing and producing) and the sixth, “I Don’t Do Drugs” featuring Ariana Grande, is airy and confi dent with heav- enly harmonies. “Love to Dream” follows, a slice of dreamy pop, and then The Weeknd stops by on a terrifi c, slow-burning “You Right.” Cat The Cat is back. From then on, the 14-track “Planet Her” rights itself with whispery pop songs and the envelope-pushing “Options” with JID, climaxing with the awesome “Kiss Me More,” the previously released single with SZA that has a Gwen Stefani-ish refrain and must be considered a strong contender for This image released by A24 shows Riley Keough, (left), and Taylour Paige in a scene from ‘Zola.’ (AP) song of the summer. Despite the weak start, Doja Cat fulfi lls her promise on “Planet Her,” with an exciting, unpredictable style and a vocal ability that can switch from buttery sweet- Film ness to cutting raps.

  • Indie Mixtape HQ Is the Third 2011
    :: View email as a web page :: In conversation, Phoebe Bridgers speaks in a deadpan SoCal accent and punctuates her blunt and hilarious observations with generous amounts of curse words. She sounds, in other words, utterly unlike her music, which tends to be quiet, contemplative, and gorgeous. Because of her gently murmuring vocal style — "I don’t sing with a lot of emotion, it’s almost an apathetic singing voice," she confesses — Bridgers tends to be cast as yet another sad-sack singer-songwriter out to jerk every last one of your tears. It’s precisely that image that made her 2017 debut Stranger In The Alps a slow-burn sensation, setting in motion a promising career that was further bolstered by her participation in two indie supergroups: Boygenius (with Lucy Dacus and Julien Baker) and Better Oblivion Community Center (with Conor Oberst). On her latest album, Punisher, due out on Friday, Bridgers goes deeper and weirder, writing with uncommon insight about the millennial condition. Check out Uproxx’s interview with her here. -- Steven Hyden, Uproxx Cultural Critic and author of This Isn't Happening: Radiohead's "Kid A" And The Beginning Of The 21st Century OPENING TRACKS HAIM This infectious and frequently canny pop-rock trio is known for making fun sing-along jams with splashy choruses that evoke the glory years of FM and Top 40 radio.

The rise of technological art forms, however, has raised questions about the act of collaboration with the machine . For Steina and Woody Vasulka, the creative process represents a "dialogue with the machine," in which they are not masters of a tool but receptors of its capabilities . Woody has said, "I have to share the creative process with the machine . It is responsible for too many elements in this work."(1) It is at the rupture between the mechanical and the electronic that the importance of the Vasulkas' work is best positioned . Their work poses crucial questions not only about the role of the machine in the creative process but also about what constitutes the electronic image, and how electronic space, with its level of abstraction and spatio-temporal dimensions, is redefining established concepts of space and time . In the work that they have produced collaboratively and as individual artists over twenty years, as multi-monitor installations or single-channel videotapes, the Vasulkas have pursued a phenomenological project of systematically deconstructing the properties of the video medium .

  • By Claudia Meléndez Salinas in a Regular Year, Katia Cardenal
    By Claudia Meléndez Salinas In a regular year, Katia Cardenal spends several months a year as a globetrotter, in two or three artistic tours, to bring her crystal-clear voice and her new Latin American trova, or ballads, to different corners of the world. This year is not ordinary. Cardenal, a Nicaraguan singer-songwriter with more than 40 years of artistic life, decided to leave her country nine months ago in the face of increased repression under Daniel Ortega. Since April 18, when thousands began to protest reforms to the pension system that Ortega implemented, the government is accused of imprisoning journalists and of organizing a violent wave of repression that resulted in the deaths of more than 300 people. Cardenal, who launched her career as a singer around the time when the Sandinista Revolution overthrew Anastasio Somoza, has long been disillusioned with Sandinismo, so it was not difficult to join the chorus of people who want to end Ortega’s mandate. But the political climate has made a safe life impossible for the dissidents, she said, and she preferred to leave everything rather than continue living under a constant threat of repression. “This is a dictatorship that has started to kill people, to repress, to jail political prisoners, to persecute journalists and leaders. With the kind of music I do, with my poetry, I’ve always tried to promote people’s rights, human rights, and I do not think I can live in Nicaragua,” Cardenal said in Spanish in a telephone interview from Maryland. So the singer-songwriter has been touring 13 countries since June, and will likely settle in Norway for some time after her tour ends.
