Amy Oelsner's homemade pop songs sparkle with these eternal truths that story-telling is part of being alive, and excavating the past is part of growth. Oelsner, who records as Amy O, is a lifer of the indie-pop underground for whom songwriting is a way of processing the passing of time. Her latest, Shell, brims with poetic granular details of everyday life; it's her third studio album, and tenth including her many years of home recordings. Following 2017's Elastic, Oelsner continues living up to that album's namesake Shell similarly stretches with melodies upon melodies. But here there is greater use of space and pace and patience. Perfectly minimal riffs slowly build, ebb, erupt and recoil; guitars and keys layer and swell; there are moments of steady piano-pop, intricate drums and pristine criss-crossing vocal melodies. On Shell, Oelsner deals in the outer and inner boundaries of self. She grapples with mortality, physical transiency and vulnerability, the concept of home. There are homages to the formative relationships that shape our lives, imperfect as they may be. There are meditations on the mundane daily routines that support mental and physical health; in her description of it, Oelsner wanted to honor invisible processing, the inward emotional labor that often goes unseen, the type of internal work that is Inchnot encouraged by society and can make you feel like you're disap- pearing.Inch For Oelsner, music is a way of connecting with herself, her personal history and context. Going into the process of writing Shell, she says InchI was noticing a gap forming between my 'adult' self who was moving forward with her life and parts of my younger self that were stuck behind and hadn't yet caught up. The process of writing and recording Shell played a big role in helping to get some of those stuck parts of myself caught up and able to join me in the present so

Evanescence are returning with 'Synthesis,' their fourth and most ambitious album to date! The album features a reworking of some of Evanescence's best-loved songs recorded with a full orchestra and electronica combined with the band and Amy Lee's virtuoso piano and voice. Evanescence - lead singer-songwriter and pianist Amy Lee, bassist Tim McCord, drummer Will Hunt, lead guitarist/backing vocalist Troy McLawhorn and guitarist Jen Majura worked with producers Will Hunt and orchestra arranger and composer David Campbell on 'Synthesis' which will also feature two new Evanescence songs, the first of which is entitled InchImperfection. Inch The album includes guest performance by famed violinist Lindsey Stirling on InchHi-LoInch the other new song on the album. InchThis is a total passion project for me. There are so many layers in our music, underneath the huge drums and guitars,Inch explains Amy Lee of Evanescence. InchI've always wanted to shine a light on some of the gorgeous David Campbell arrangements and programming elements in our songs, and that idea snowballed into completely re-doing them with full orchestra, not just strings, elaborate programming and experimentation. This will be our first time touring with orchestra and I'm so excited to perform this way-really focus on the vocals, and the emotion and the story we've built over the years. I'm also really excited about the new material on the album. Besides the two new songs, there are some really beautiful instrumental in-between moments. The whole thing flows like a big, dynamic soundtrack. - Synthesis by Evanescence Album Tracks 1. Overture 2. Never Go Back 3. Hi-Lo 4. My Heart Is Broken 1. Lacrymosa 2. The End of the Dream 3.
