Violinist, singer, and composer Kishi Bashi is slated to release his new album on May 13, 2014. The album entitled "Lighght" (pronounced "Light") continues and expands the sound of his critically acclaimed debut, "151a" - which earned Kishi Bashi the title of "Best New Artist" by NPR. Since the profoundly successful release of "151a" two years ago, Kishi Bashi has toured relentlessly, captivating audiences across the globe with his loop-based live show, and fostering a groundswell of devotees. 

"151a" was crafted over a four-year period while Kishi Bashi was touring and recording with Regina Spektor, Sondre Lerche, and of Montreal (where he was a full-time member and co-producer). In late 2012, after the success of "151a", Kishi Bashi decided to focus solely on his own music and began composing the new material which has become "Lighght".

"Lighght" takes its title from the one-word poem by minimalist poet Aram Saroyan. As Kishi Bashi explains, "The poem's blatant assault on literary convention and classical form was attractive to me." It is apparent that such an approach informed the new album, which has both broadened and redefined his classical foundations. "Though I have studied classical composition, I prefer to take an unconventional path when it comes to creating and thinking about music," says Kishi Bashi. 

Though violin remains his primary instrument and songwriting muse, Kishi Bashi has expanded his palette to include more diverse and nuanced instrumentation. Bright and soaring avant-pop songs are prevalent, as are Eastern-tinged arrangements, gentle ballads, Philip Glass inspired improvisations, and more than a few moments that flirt with 70s prog (in the tradition of ELO or Yes). 

If this sounds jarringly kaleidoscopic, that's because it is. But it works. Listen and see.

Loving Like This marks the introduction from newcomer, Sabella.

At only nineteen its almost intimidating the confidence Sabella displays in her songwriting and by the nature of the track’s narrative, her maturity to acknowledge the time spent wallowing in longing and heartbreak is time ill spent. Clocking in at just under three minutes, Loving Like This exemplifies Sabella’s lack of necessity to spend on the subject of the track and provides a small open window as to what’s to come from the soon to be announced EP.

Raised within earshot of Glastonbury, Sabella’s writing was born and inspired by her love for literature. With an intuition for story telling, from a young age, she began to write her own short stories and poems, which she soon found to be the best way to express her feelings. Her writing then naturally progressed into song lyrics as her interest in music grew she begin to experiment with her own recordings. After being introduced to producer, Authr, the pair set about exchanging ideas and formulating the recordings that make up her debut release, due late Spring 2015 on Best Fit Recordings.

The Zolas "Molotov Girls"

First single from 2015 EP 'How To Harken Back'

Cycle As The Deal Goes Down

Tripping over empty bottles
Spill the wine forget the sorrow
Waste another kiss on someone
Meant for us but it's so hollow
I watched every move
I stayed in your groove
It's a complex rhythm 
I followed your steps
Hit every snare
And it led me nowhere

No I can't dance 
No I can't dance
No I can't dance to the beat of your drum
No I can't dance
I said I can't dance to the beat of your drum

I spun crooked circles til my vision got blurred
Seen all the dizzy visions I can take for sure and so
I stood on my head until the truth came out
I've never needed nobody 
And I still don't now
I've been spending all my time with you
That don't change the way my body moves

No I can't dance 
No I can't dance
No I can't dance to the beat of your drum
No I can't dance
I said I can't dance to the beat of your drum

I've been spending all my time with you
That don't change the way my body moves

No I can't dance 
No I can't dance
No I can't dance to the beat of your drum
No I can't dance
I said I can't dance to the beat of your drum
