Braswell Lia

Rising (2 Vinyl LP)

Waxwork Records is proud to release the debut solo-album by Lia Braswell. 'Rising' marks Braswell's emergence as a primary songwriter, unveiling an ethereal dream-folk sound that emphasizes atmospheric melodies and introspection. If Braswell's name rings a bell, that's because it should. Having done time as the touring drummer for A Place To Bury Strangers, TR/ST, Le Butcherettes, Sextile, and many others, Braswell has performed on nearly every continent and played internationally renowned festivals such as Coachella and Cruel World. As such, it should come as no surprise that her impressive resumé shines through in the expertly crafted, ethereal dream pop of Rising. Simultaneously evoking the airy, atmospheric sensibilities of Cocteau Twins, the pop-forward experimentation of Kate Bush, and the hyper-danceable, retro synthwave of contemporary artists like Riki and Nuovo Testamento, Braswell's self-assured presence as both a songwriter and vocalist results in an effort that bears none of the awkward growing pains one might expect from a new project. Equally arresting is Braswell's lyrical finesse, with profoundly evocative and delicately personal narratives elevating the already deeply affecting music to heights that border on the sublime. Moving from the relative anonymity of a drum kit to the revealing illumination of center stage comes with its own unique set of anxiety-inducing challenges, but if Braswell is experiencing any trepidation, it certainly doesn't show in the quality of her music. Then again, when you've already toured with Iggy and the Stooges by age 20, maybe embarking on a solo career seems quaint in comparison. What's beyond debate is that Braswell has a remarkable knack for songwriting and performance that is self-evident on her stunning debut. Accomplished a career as it already, Rising feels like just one more step forward in an ever-growing body of work that is much greater than the sum of its parts. From Lia Braswell: "This record took years for me to write. I wrote every single day since 2013, which was the practice that helped me get through to the words and sentiment that would be able to condense such deep emotions into 4-5 minute songs. It's an album from the depths of my heart and all that it's been beating through." Waxwork Records is thrilled to present 'Rising' as a deluxe double LP featuring three previously unreleased bonus tracks, ""Zinnia"" splatter colored vinyl, a heavyweight gatefold jacket with overall UV gloss coating, a vertical belly-band, a 12""x12"" full color insert and lyric sheet, and an 18""x24"" full color poster. Also available in CD Long Box configuration and limited edition flower filled vinyl manufactured in collaboration with Romanus Custom Vinyl MFG.
