ANOHNI + THE JOHNSONS NEW ONE IS FANTASTIC

ANOHNI and the Johnsons have a new track out and it’s a soulful, brooding gem. There’s a new LP due to called ‘My Back Was A Bridge For You To Cross’, with the lead single called ‘It Must Change’.

The artist says: “Some of these songs respond from the present day to global and environmental concerns first voiced in popular music over 50 years ago.”

“I want the record to be useful. I learned with ‘Hopelessness’ that I can provide a soundtrack that might fortify people in their work, in their activism, in their dreaming and decision-making.

“I can sing of an awareness that makes others feel less alone, people for whom the frank articulation of these frightening times is not a source of discomfort but a cause for identification and relief. I want the work to be useful, to help others move with dignity and resilience through these conversations we are now facing.”

Have a listen. This sounds like an instant-classic to us.
