Hallelujah, indeed. 

Just nine months after the release of her critically acclaimed 2014 album Runaway’s Diary, Amy LaVere has a sweet surprise for fans – Hallelujah  I’m A Dreamer, recorded with husband and noted guitarist Will Sexton, is out April 7 via Archer Records.
Hallelujah is a sonic portrait. In these 11 tracks, Amy and Will have captured the immediacy of the live show they’ve developed on the road together, reveling in a more stripped-down sound and celebrating the freedoms and limitations that come with it in stunning form.

Recorded to magnetic tape (with the help of engineer Daniel Lynn and longtime band mate guitarist Dave Cousar) in the course of a few afternoons at Music+Arts Studio, the arrangements are lithe and uncluttered, allowing Amy and Will’s disarming harmonies to rise to the top. At times their voices blend so well you can hardly find the place where they split – it’s a dance matched only by the complimentary guitar work of Sexton and Cousar. 

The gems of the album are its new tunes – the playful and evocative “Cricket (At Night I Can Fly)” and “It’s the Thing to Do,” a co-write with Will – plus a new almost sunny take on the macabre “Red Banks,” which originally appeared on Amy’s 2011 studio album Stranger Me and a sublime cover of David Egan’s “Hallelujah I’m A Dreamer,” the album’s namesake.

Hallelujah I’m A Dreamer is immediate and striking, a masterfully played (and curated) mix of old, new and reimagined.

Lyrics:
Feathered creatures woke me, with the stomping of their feet
I was feeling hazy, strange creatures passing through these streets
I hear a distant drumming, the drone pierces through my brain
Oh medicine man please tell me, am I alright or am I insane

Come join the masquerade, Come join the death parade
There I saw Damballah dancing, around his neck, a creature serpentine
Then it dawned upon me, how could I not have read these signs
I saw my dear mother in a pale white dress, a gris-gris bag and a blade
Around the fire, Baron Samedi, almighty Oya, and everybody swayed

It was down on Congo Square, where I last saw my sweet Marie
As I kneeld down to ask her: stay with me for eternity
So darling build me an alter, bring me cigars, flowers and rum
And I will dance and sing with the loudest voice, for you Marie, until the day you come

The idea is to mix the roots of American music with the various forms of world music to create an unusual otherworldly sound. The result is unique! With the energy of a Romanian brass band, blues, country, jazz, pop and soul of the 1920s and ’30s to the ’50s and ’60s meets Klezmer, Jamaican calypso, New Orleans R, swing, avant-garde jazz, Tuvan-Mongolian ballads and Middle Eastern fables.
