LACUNA RE-IMAGINED
2020
Trixie Whitley presents Lacuna Re-Imagined in which she reworked six tracks from the Lacuna album (2019).
“All tracks are based on live one-take recordings performed in my kitchen, with no edits made to the take. I stuck to my general rule of 3 takes for each tune, and willfully chose to perform the bulk of these without a click, although on two of the six tracks I used analog drum machines, going back to my earliest days of writing & playing.
The wonderfully inspiring musician/composer Emily Wells and her accompanist Topu Lyu we’re generous enough to collaborate with me on string arrangements which we basically recorded on the fly in my living room over the course of three days.
Shortly after my dear friend and neighbor Stuart Bogie joined the project and added the horns & woodwinds, breathing extra layers of new life into these raw takes.
This year marks the 15th year since my father passed away. He was 45 at the time and would have turned 60 this year. As raw as these recordings are, I’m so happy to be able to share them with anyone willing to experience them. I put so much love into them and I am partnering with the Callen-Lorde clinic in NYC, which helped both my father and I during rough times while he was still alive. They continue to do really important work for vulnerable minority groups in the city and in Brooklyn and are inevitably affected by the current Covid Pandemic. Any profits made from these recordings and the upcoming live event will go directly to their clinic and activism work.”
Released on all digital platforms and limited edition vinyl on November 13 2020.
