Parts of Speech, Dessa's third album, came out on Doomtree Records on June 25, 2013, the latest dispatch from the Minneapolis indie hip-hop collective she calls home. Dessa, born Margret Wander, is a singer, a rapper and a writer all at once, and this record plays to a performer who can do all three. It follows Castor, the Twin, and radio took to "Skeleton Key", "Warsaw" and "Call Off Your Ghost". A year later, on June 17, 2014, the songs came back reworked on the remix EP Parts of Speech, Re-Edited.
