Currently digging the Kate Bush vamping on "Lillies." This album does so many things in such a short span.

it makes lots of sense that "little earthquakes" is her tori amos pick!

What a lovely and telling playlist!

After half a dozen listens this album is beginning to surpass Blackheart for me and rise to near the top of my favourites this year. I love everything about it and her. Such energy!

Has she ever listened to Nona Hendryx's Skindiver?

I was always a nerd

Jeff W, Saturday, 7 January 2017 13:23 (nine years ago)

Lots of celebrities say things like that -- I was a nerd, I was a geek -- and I'm sure it's true for some number of them. But Dawn's nerd cred is pretty undeniable. Not many people have named a band after their own anime character.

Also, reading that made me finally finish the review of Redemption I started a while ago, so fwiw it's here: http://bit.ly/2jnV2z4

Jeff W, Friday, 20 January 2017 13:54 (nine years ago)

So she's got a collaboration with David Longstreth (Dirty Projectors) coming out, according to his interview in Pitchfork

Everything Moves Towards The Sun (Ross), Tuesday, 24 January 2017 20:55 (nine years ago)

I shouldna doubted her - https://twitter.com/DawnRichard/status/823990273512353792

Love that Solange wrote this track

Dirty Projectors are real hit and miss with me but this is dope

Lol at Dave Longstreth's mastery of one facial expression in this video

two weeks pass...

Redemption is out on CD and vinyl as of last Monday (in the UK anyways). More accurately, the title RedemptionHeart appears to have been revived for the physical release.

The CD has two previously unreleased bonus tracks, "Hurricane" and "Van Gogh". The latter sounds like a keeper judging by the clips on Juno:

Jeff W, Wednesday, 22 February 2017 21:10 (nine years ago)

You can listen to both "Hurricane" and "Van Gogh" here. "Van Gogh" is ace

She was excellent in her Pitchfork debut last Friday afternoon.

I am so bummed that I missed her! (And you!) Damn redeye jetlag. But she's playing down the block from me tomorrow, so.

maura and I caught this last night. Holy shit. She was INCREDIBLE. She gave a rapturous audience in a small club 2 straight hours of fire, and THAT VOICE. Holy shit.

damn

ToddBonzalez (BradNelson), Friday, 21 July 2017 18:48 (eight years ago)

She was greeting people and taking pictures with fans afterward. I thought about sticking around to talk to her but a) after doing what she just did, I didn't want to make her talk any more than she had to, and b) I am old and wanted to go home.

this iphone speaks many languages (DJP), Friday, 21 July 2017 18:53 (eight years ago)

sounds awesome DJP

love Gravity

four months pass...

Redemptionheart is probably my fave album of last year. Impeccable sequencing and the album has both sides of a coin, the second half is super chill and a great way to go after the euphoric highs of the first. Lilies picks up the momentum but doesn't deliver the beats the way the first half does, and for that it's all the more powerful, and the vocalizations in the track harken back to early dawn (like goldenheart) so that makes me happy!
