Product Overview
Anna Calvi - Hunter (VINYL ALBUM)
Hunter is the embodiment of the feeling of truly letting go. For the songwriter and virtuosic guitarist, it was a catharsis, an opportunity to be more truthful than ever. The first new music since 2014's collaborative release with David Byrne, Strange Weather EP, her self-titled debut album and the 2013 follow-up One Breath, Hunter is a visceral album exploring sexuality and breaking the laws of gender conformity. A queer and a feminist record, it is galvanising in its hunt for freedom. It was important to Calvi that it was as vulnerable as it is strong; as beautiful as it is harsh; as much about the hunted as it is about the hunter.
Produced by Nick Launay (Nick Cave, Grinderman)at KonkStudios in London with some further production in LA, the album was recorded with Anna's band -MallyHarpazon various instruments and Alex Thomas on drums -with the addition of Adrian Utley from Portishead on keys and Martyn Casey from The Bad Seeds on bass. It has a new rawness, a primal energy into which Calvipushes the limits of her guitar and voice beyond anything she's recorded before.
