Hunted Due Out Tomorrow via Domino
Mar 05, 2020 Anna Calvi
Anna Calvi is releasing a new album, Hunted, tomorrow via Domino. It is a new stripped down version of her 2018 album Hunter featuring various notable guest singers. Now she has shared Hunted‘s version of “Swimming Pool,” which features guest vocals from Julia Holter. Listen below, followed by Calvi’s upcoming tour dates.
Previously Calvi shared Hunted‘s first single, a new version of “Don’t Beat the Girl Out of My Boy” that featured guest vocals from Courtney Barnett. It was one of our Songs of the Week. Then she shared Hunted‘s version of “Eden,” which featured guest vocals from Charlotte Gainsbourg and was also one of our Songs of the Week. Hunted also features and IDLES’ Joe Talbot.
Calvi had this to say about Hunted in a previous press release: “During a break from touring I went back and listened to the first recordings I ever made of Hunter. These recordings capture the very moment I first wrote these songs, and recorded them on my own, in my attic studio. I find something especially intimate about sharing these most private recordings with my favorite singers and asking them to lend their voices and artistic sensibility. Courtney Barnett is an amazing artist. Her voice and guitar playing together are mind blowing. Her ability to connect the profound to the smallest moments of human experience is the unique talent of a true artist.”
Hunter was Calvi’s third full-length album and the follow up to 2011’s Anna Calvi and 2013’s One Breath. It was nominated for the Mercury Prize.
Last year Calvi shared an atmospheric new song, “You’re Not God,” that was done for the soundtrack of the Netflix/BBC show Peaky Blinders and was one of our Songs of the Week.
