Signe Marie Rustad - PARTICLES OF FAITH - VINYL LP

After catching the attention of the growing Americana-loving audience in Norway with her 2012 debut Golden Town - the title a reference to her mother's hometown Golden, Colorado - Signe Marie Rustad secured her first Spellemann (Norwegian Grammy) nomination with critically acclaimed second album Hearing Colors Seeing Noises (2016). On her third album, When Words Flew Freely, Rustad returns with the powerful, elastic voice and poetic lyrical style that has earned her a loyal fan base. The album's nine tracks revolve around traumatic life events, and the feeling of emotional stagnation, with a severe writer's block as a result.

On her new album Alva, singer, musician, activist and cultural icon Mari Boine offers glimpses into a childhood which she abandoned when she chose to leave behind a strict religious upbringing in order to pursue a life of activism. The new studio record reflects on finding the balance the between her, the at times lonely, mission to share the culture and histories of the Sámi people through music to people across the world, and her personal journey and relationships. The poignancy of the record reaches an emotional high on the mournful InchMu eadniInch (Mother of Mine), wherein Mari laments her own relationship with her mother. She is also found reflective on InchOainnestanInch (Glimpses), when looking at the relationship she has with her son.Alva reflects the InchwillpowerInch of it's name, and takes the listener on a musical journey of exhilarating momentum, spurred along by a full band. There's an emancipated energy that is also reflected in the music, soaring to new heights over vast imagined landscapes of the tundra of Northern Norway. Album Tracks 1.
