Description
Last year, when the pandemic struck and sent the whole world into a lockdown as well as entire populations into isolation – Kira Skov felt compelled to reach out with her music. And so, the Danish singer and songwriter did just that, making contact with vocalists and instrumentalists she had worked with in the past, as well as others she had admired from afar. A new project was born and despite the sometimes-vast geographical distances between the musicians, they set out together to search for and forge meaning in an otherwise meaningless time.
The ambitious venture was a success, with everyone approached coming aboard. The powerful resulting album of duets features wonderfully personal contributions from familiar and fresh musical personalities including Jenny Wilson, Mark Lanegan, Bonnie 'Prince' Billy, John Parish, Bill Callahan, and Lionel Liminana, as well as Mette Lindberg, Marie Fisker, Stine Grøn, and Steen Jørgensen.
For this recording, Kira is once again joined by the band which has maintained a steady presence on her albums and tours over the last few years: Silas Tinglef on drums and guitar, Anders 'AC' Christensen on bass and piano, Oliver Hoiness on guitar and keys, Maria Jagd on violin, and the bandleader and songwriter herself on vocals and guitar. The songs were recorded at STC Studio by Mads Møldgård, with Kira Skov and Silas Tinglef co-producing.
