Episode 459: Juliana Hatfield RiYL
-
- Arts
The past few years found her trying something new — or, rather, old. With a pair cover albums, Juliana Hatfield first tackled the song of Olivia Newton-John and the then Police — both to rave reviews. Earlier this month, the singer-songwriter released a new solo album — her 19th. Titled Blood, the LP explores the divisiveness and psychological tole the last four years have had on much of the American psyche. Limited by the pandemic, Hatfield recorded much of the audio at home, adding overdubs and mixing at a nearby studio. The result is the emotionally raw and sometimes aurally abrasive work of an artist still breaking new ground more than 30 years after making studio debut as a member of the Blake Babies.
