Fetch the Bolt Cutters

Really nice piece in the New Yorker today on Fiona Apple and her upcoming album, Fetch the Bolt Cutters. She's been a fave for a long while and her albums are too far between. Her last one, The Idler Wheel Is Wiser Than The Driver of The Screw And Whipping Cords Will Serve You More Than Ropes Will Ever Do, was released in 2012. The time between that one and the previous, Extraordinary Machine, was 9 years. So, yeah, there's a little pattern. In any case, please enjoy this article while you're social distancing and waiting for Fetch the Bolt Cutters to drop: https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2020/03/23/fiona-apples-art-of-radical-sensitivity

It's probably a good time to reacquaint yourself with her four albums, as well: Tidal (1996), When the Pawn (1999), Extraordinary Machine (2003), The Idler Wheel (2012).

Lastly (for now), check out this fantastic cover of Elvis Costello's I Want You, with the man himself on guitar.
