Adrianne Lenker feels things deeply. You hear it in every one of her songs; whether solo, or with her band Big Thief. Lucky for us, she shares it all. Over the past few years she's become one of the most promising and prolific songwriters around. Adrianne got her start early though, and it feels as though music has always helped her better understand the world. When she speaks about music everything slows down. She has a way of articulating what is often intangible, and she draws you into a beautiful meditative state with her voice and ideas. Whether you’re a superfan, or if Adrianne Lenker is a new name, this is a conversation that will speak to you. It’s about connection, about how melancholy can filter through joy, and how you can find space in the most intensely crowded sounds. It’s five songs that get under her skin, from an artist that will get under yours.
