Composer, musician, and producer Kara-Lis Coverdale has announced her first album in eight years. Her fourth studio album, From Where You Came, comes out on May 9 via Smalltown Supersound.

The Canadian musician also shared the lead single “Daze”, communicating the “Reckoning with the experience of grief, dislocation, and the pressure of total freedom and independence”, along with some lush and evocative visuals which you can check below:

The follow-up to her 2017 album Grafts, has been written and recorded on several continents, but was finished in her hometown of Ontario, Canada. It involves multi-layered dynamic pieces that, according to a press release, draw inspiration from “19th century programmatic music,” and “mid-’70s jazz.” It features skilled figures in the likes of GRAMMY award-winning trombone player Kalia Vandever and cellist Anne Bourne.

The record includes a wide variety of instruments including strings, woodwind, brass, keys, software, and modular synthesis that help shape the sound, or musical language of the project; as Coverdale says, “Anything can have a voice. For me, voice is beyond human."

The multi-instrumentalist has no scheduled performances at the moment, but she has previously toured with artists such as Big Thief, Caribou, Gagaku Ensemble and Floating Points.
