Margaret Glaspy shares new single "Memories"
Margaret Glaspy shares new single "Memories" today, as the latest single from her recently announced album Echo The Diamond.
The track finds Glaspy examining the emotional ruin so easily wrought by our own grieving minds.
“"Memories" was probably the most challenging song for me to track; the take you hear is the only one I was able to get through completely,” she says. “It was a level of vulnerability I’d never gotten on record, and it holds a special place in my heart now. Even though it’s about a very specific loss for me, it seems to ricochet in different ways for anyone who hears it.”
Glaspy previously revealed the album's opening track “Act Natural”.
She has also confirmed her return to UK this September, touring alongside Half Moon Run before a headline show at London’s Omeara.
Echo The Diamond is the third full-length from Margaret Glaspy. It was produced by Glaspy with co-production from her partner, guitarist/composer Julian Lage. Glaspy worked with drummer/percussionist David King of The Bad Plus and bassist Chris Morrissey (Andrew Bird, Lucius, Ben Kweller), recording at Reservoir Studios in Manhattan. The album is the follow-up to 2020’s Devotion.
The album takes its title from a turn of phrase that Glaspy tossed off in the midst of a conversation with Lage. “Bruce Lee once said to be water – if water is in a teacup, it becomes teacup-shaped; if it’s in a glass, then it takes the shape of that glass,” she recalls. “For me, Echo The Diamond is a way of saying ‘shine bright’, ‘be brilliant.’”
Echo The Diamond is out on 18 August via ATO, and is available to pre-order now.
