Album Update
Hi all,
I’m aware I’ve been quiet on this blog. It’s the eternal struggle of the ‘one woman band’ artist, bury your head in your art and allow the ideas to run wild, or come up for air to communicate, while plate spinning other roles and identities. I thought it was time to take a breath and let you know where I am with the new album.
I’ve been working behind the scenes with producer Gerry Diver for 9 months now and we’re about 55% of the way there. I’m enjoying the process, but most of all I’m enjoying finding my voice again.
Working in the industry, for the industry can often cloud that voice, so with this album comes a journey of discovery and re-discovery, along with an unapologetic honesty and rawness I can’t say I’ve ever articulated before. It is, incredibly liberating.
I hope you can forgive me for what would be deemed ‘slow progress’ in today’s world, but one thing I’ve learnt from my research and PhD is that the best work is often untethered, and most importantly not rushed.
I’ll be shooting some photos for the artwork later this month and will be continuing to thrash out new songs and re-vamp existing songs, all as a process of emergence.
This will be, my best work yet.
Anna
