A.A. Williams
Following debut album Forever Blue released in July, A.A. Williams announces Songs From Isolation, a 9-track LP of cover versions, released 12th February via Bella Union.
To mark the announcement Williams has shares her version of “Lovesong” by The Cure with Williams commenting: “Lovesong was one of the first songs suggested by fans for the Songs From Isolation series, and was one of my favourites to rework - the original conjures up such nostalgic feelings, I really wanted to honour as many of elements of it as possible. The lyrics are so beautiful and tender and I wanted to shine a light on them in this version, so I’ve tried to create a delicate backdrop for them out of the melodic elements of The Cure’s original.”
The Songs From Isolation project began at the beginning of the UK’s lockdown in March. A.A. Williams took songs suggested by fans and created a series of videos presenting the tracks with stripped-down instrumentation, recorded and filmed from her home. The album represents a continuation of the project into a full collection of recordings and features cover versions of The Cure, Pixies, Deftones, Nick Cave, Gordon Lightfoot, Radiohead, Nine Inch Nails and more.
