| | Description: | Following Allison Russellâ??s GRAMMY-nominated debut album Outside Child (2021), The Returner is a body-shaking, mind-expanding, soulful expression of Black liberation, Black love, of Black self-respect. Written and co-produced by Allison along with Dim Star (her partner JT Nero and his brother Drew Lindsay), The Returner was recorded over Solstice week in December 2022 at Henson Recording Studios in Los Angeles, and features an astounding all-female musical collective Allison dubbed The Rainbow Coalition.
Breaking free from Outside Childâ??s acoustic-based contours, Allison, JT, and Drew, built The Returner from the bottom up. The rhythm-first, genre-fluid approach and the improvisational energy of great female artists, sparked the albumâ??s fierce joy and provided a wider canvas for Allisonâ??s immense, unlimited talent.
Artist quote: â??My goal with The Returner â?? sonically, poetically, and spiritually â?? is a radical reclamation of the present tense, a real time union of body, mind, and soul. A goal that is more daunting than any of the improbable escapes I sang of in Outside Child.
Where the last album was deliberately stark in its color palette and iconography, The Returner is furiously coloristic and vivid â?? a contrast reflected equally in the sonic differences of the new album. Leaning into various groove evolutions cultivated by the African Diaspora over the last century and a half in North America, itâ??s a much deeper articulation of rhythm, groove, and syncopation. Groove as it heralds the self back into the body, groove as it celebrates sensual and sexual agency and flowering, groove as an urgent call to action and political activism. â??
In all, the new album doesnâ??t just deliver on the massive promise of the last two years, it brilliantly exceeds all reasonable (and unreasonable) expectations and affirms Allison Russellâ??s place among musicâ??s most vital artists and The Returner, as one of 2023â??s most essential recordings. - Allison Russell - "The Returner" -A record of fierce joy, The Returner is the new album from 4x GRAMMY-nominated singer, songwriter, and multiinstrumentalist Allison Russell.
