Known for her improvisational recordings — turning warehouses, trailers, and lofts into studios – Japanese Breakfast front-woman and founder Michelle Zauner took to a proper studio for her fourth full-length album For Melancholy Brunettes (& sad women), due on Mar. 21 via Dead Oceans. For a unifying theme, this collection turns to the Greek mythological plight of Icarus, who flew too close to the sun and died. A noted author (Crying in H Mart), Zauner riffs on the work of another author John Cheever’s Orlando Innamorato for the melodious “Orlando In Love.”
