{"product_id":"gia-margaret-singing-cd","title":"Gia Margaret - Singing (CD)","description":"\u003cp\u003eEvery artist has to discover their voice. \u003cstrong\u003eGia Margaret \u003c\/strong\u003edidn’t find herself until she lost hers. With a vocal injury that kept her from singing for years, she developed other musical languages, mastering the grammar of an intricate, homey form of ambient music pioneered by \u003cstrong\u003eErnest Hood \u003c\/strong\u003eand perfected by \u003cstrong\u003eThe Books\u003c\/strong\u003e. Now, her physical voice healed and her artistic voice honed, she comes full circle with Singing, her first vocal album since 2018’s There’s Always Glimmer. Led by soft piano lines that fall like breath on glass, the music on Singing evidences the same jeweler’s sensitivity to detail that she developed in her silence. “There was a time when I really didn’t know if I would sing again. So once I healed, there was a lot of internal pressure to come back strong,” Margaret says. “I didn’t know who I was anymore. So it felt like beginning again, and reconnecting with these very old, old parts of myself.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe album was partially recorded in London with \u003cstrong\u003eFrou Frou’\u003c\/strong\u003es \u003cstrong\u003eGuy Sigsworth\u003c\/strong\u003e, who helped Margaret unify the spree of ideas she had for “Good Friend,” an album highlight that includes Gregorian chant by ILĀ and turntable scratches, among many other things. \u003cstrong\u003eDavid Bazan\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eAmy Millan\u003c\/strong\u003e also make appearances, as do \u003cstrong\u003eKurt Vile\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eSean Carey\u003c\/strong\u003e, while Margaret’s longtime collaborator \u003cstrong\u003eDoug Saltzman\u003c\/strong\u003e plays on and co-produces much of the record. \u003cstrong\u003eDeb Talan,\u003c\/strong\u003e previously of \u003cstrong\u003eThe Weepies\u003c\/strong\u003e, lends her voice, piano, and guitar to the album's closing—and definitive—statement, \"E-Motion.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cu\u003eTRACKLIST\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1.
