songs by Adrianne Lenker
songs is an album by Adrianne Lenker, released in 2020. 1 song from it has charted on rock radio countdowns, with 3 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “anything”, on 3 lists with a best position of #30.
songs, Adrianne Lenker's fourth solo album, came out on 4AD on October 23, 2020, the same day as its wordless twin, instrumentals. The Big Thief singer made it in the wake of a breakup, with her band's tour wiped out by the COVID-19 pandemic, holed up in isolation in a cabin in Massachusetts with an eight-track machine.
You can hear the room in every take. It's just Lenker's voice and acoustic guitar, recorded lo-fi and up close: eleven songs of plainspoken, traditional-minded folk writing that feel less performed than overheard. "anything" and "dragon eyes" went out ahead of it as singles, and critics fell hard for both records. In her solo run it sits between Abysskiss and 2024's Bright Future.
