Ani DiFranco announces new album
July 16th, 2008 by Wade Tatangelo in News
The singer/songwriter’s new disc will be titled Red Letter Year and issued on her own Righteous Babe label Sept. 20 30, reports Billboard.com. DiFranco alluded to the album when I interviewed her for an April cover story.
What projects do you have planned for the future?
In a couple days I’m going to go in the studio with the band, and we’re going to put a new record together. I’m also slowly recording [an album of] music for infants. I want to make something ambient to soothe infants — instrumental, very ambient. I started working on it when I was spending months with my infant. I sort of became aware that I wanted to make a record I wish I had to soothe her and help her sleep. I figure since I’ve made so much music over the years to wake people up, it was about time to make something to put them to sleep.
