“I’m really big into records—I have a lot of records—I like to listen to an album as a whole piece. That may be an old fashioned idea, but there’s definitely a cult of people that really still listen to music that way,” Sean Rowe told us in 2012.
“When I listen to music, I’m always hit by the sound of it first and then I think it’s great because if there’s real substance there, on the fifth listen, you start to dig a little bit deeper. A lot of my favorite music is like that—there’s so much depth to it, however you want to drag yourself into it a million different ways. I love music like that.”
Fast forward to 2015 and Rowe’s returned with Her Songs—his wholly unique and evocative take on 6 tracks from some of his favorite musicians who just happen to be female—including Neko Case, Lucinda Williams, Sade, Cat Power, and Regina Spektor. We’re delighted to unveil the official video for Rowe’s cover of Feist’s “Let It Die,” a thoughtful rumination on turning the proverbial page. And digging a bit deeper.
Her Songs arrives in stores on April 28 via ANTI- Records.
