Alessi's Ark Readies New Album, The Still Life

 

Alessis-ark2

Time to check in with my buddy Alessi and her always impressive releases. She has put the finishing touched on her third full-length abum, The Still Life. Last summer, she recoded the album over three weeks in Athens, GA with producer Andy LeMaster of the band Now It's Overhead. Jake Bellows of Neva Dinova and The Whispertown 2000 provides guest vocals.

This is the tracklisting, which includes a cover of The National's "Afraid of Everyone":

  1. Tin Smithing
  2. Veins Are Blue
  3. The Rain
  4. The Good Song
  5. Big Dipper
  6. Afraid of Everyone
  7. Those Waves
  8. Whatever Makes You Happy
  9. Sans Balance
  10. Mountain
  11. Hands In The Sink
  12. Money
  13. Pinewoods

In the meantime, this is from her last album, Time Travel. It's called "Wire"
