23 April 2021

Artist: ANGEL OLSEN
New album: SONGS OF THE LARK AND OTHER MEMORIES
A Box Set featuring her 2019 album All Mirrors and the 2020
full-length Whole New Mess, but also a bonus LP with remixes,
alternate tracks, and a cover of Roxy Music’s ‘More Than This.’

Track: ALIVE AND DYING (WAVING, SMILING)
The second taster from the upcoming box. It’s an enchanting,
strings-symphonic reinterpretation of sad ballad Waving, Smiling
from last year’s Whole New Mess album.

“It’s very me. I will always nosedive into love, and suffering can definitely
come with that. When I hear this version the strings really bring the song
to its necessary bittersweet boiling point,” says Olsen.

19 August 2020

Divine voice NAGEL OLSEN releases A WHOLE NEW MESS,
the stripped-down version of the album that became last
year’s magnificent LP  All Mirrors on 28 August.

Besides nine songs we know from All Mirrors a Whole New Mess
contains also two new songs. The previously shared title track
and this highly sensitive reverie WAVING, SMILING.

“‘Waving, Smiling’ in my head is the last scene, a slow-motion realization
of love not lost but at peace somewhere within myself. It’s the bittersweet
end of a chapter of my life — it is the final acceptance that despite coming
to an end all of that time was not lost or wasted” tells Olsen in a statement.
