Description

Mirage on 12" Single

Molly Lewis's compositions seem to float into our

ears from distant shores. They're otherworldly, drawn more from

landscapes of dream than from anywhere you could find on a map.

Lewis is a unique presence in music today. Her trademark whistle,

which brings to mind the great Peruvian soprano Yma Sumac, has

graced recordings of everything from Schumann lieder and Brazilian

jazz to Spaghetti Western ballads and noir lounge.

Lewis's collaborations are diverse: La Femme, Sébastien

Tellier and Dr. Dre. She's performed around the globe, at Shanghai's

Yuz Museum, the Cannes Film Festival, Mexico City's Salón Los

Angeles, and across the whole of New Zealand. Lewis's 2021 debut

EP, The Forgotten Edge, was produced by Tom Brenneck (Charles

Bradley, Amy Winehouse). It was a critical success, drawing praise

from The New York Times and NPR, and landing Lewis a spot on CBS

Sunday Morning.

Now, Lewis and Brenneck have teamed up again for her

second EP, Mirage, bringing aboard Brazilian guitarist Rogê, as well

as percussionist Gibi Dos Santos and keyboardist Roger Manning.

Capacious and atmospheric, Mirage is Lewis's most hypnotic effort

yet. Like Eden's Island (1970) by eden ahbez-whose "Nature Boy"

is covered in one of Mirage's standout moments-the album is based

on Lewis's visions of an imaginary island. The lush, oceanic textures

of Mirage transport us to the sands of an unknown beach-all alone

or in the company we've always dreamt of keeping.
