NORAH JONES… NEW MUSIC

On March 8th NORAH JONES will release her ninth solo studio album ‘Visions’. The LP is a collaboration with producer and multi-instrumentalist Leon Michels. Norah’s team tell us that ‘Visions’ is “a vibrant and joyous 12-song set that finds Jones singing about feeling free, wanting to dance, making it right, and acceptance of what life brings. It’s the yang to the yin that was ‘Pick Me Up Off The Floor’, Jones’ last album of new original songs which was released early in the pandemic lockdown of 2020 and foreshadowed many of the dark emotions of that period.”

Of the new album Ms Jones says: “The reason I called the album Visions is because a lot of the ideas came in the middle of the night or in that moment right before sleep, and ‘Running’ was one of them where you’re half asleep and kind of jolted awake,” says Jones. “We did most of the songs in the same way where I was at the piano or on guitar and Leon was playing drums and we were just jamming on stuff. I like the rawness between me and Leon, the way it sounds kind of garage-y but also kind of soulful, because that’s where he’s coming from, but also not overly perfected.”
