Jessica Pratt

The revered Los Angeles artist Jessica Pratt has become one of the most singular and distinctive songwriters of her generation, largely through the bewitching sound of her acoustic guitar and vocals: a mystical, elusive blend that conjures deep emotional responses from her devoted audience.

Here in the Pitch is her first release in half a decade, and sees her working once again with her trusted collaborators – multi-instrumentalist/engineer Al Carlson and keyboardist Matt McDermott. Pratt also enlisted the rhythm duo of bassist Spencer Zahn and percussionist Mauro Refosco (David Byrne, Atoms for Peace) to help realise her vision – “big panoramic sounds that make you think of the ocean and California.” The results are evident in the dynamic repertoire of instruments accompanying her graceful, dreamlike melodies.

Plus support: Aoife Nessa Frances
