Diamanda Galás, renowned singer, composer announces her new live album set for release on June 14.
Her new live album Diamanda Galás in Concert features select recordings taken from performances at Thalia Hall in Chicago and Neptune Theater in Seattle in 2017. She shares her lead single “A Soul That’s Been Abused.”
The album is set to release on June 14 via Intravenal Sound Operations. Galás’s live album displays the full expressive range of her voice. She strips away the comforting patina of time, tradition and stylistic convention to expose and express the raw human emotion. The album explores an eclectic range of material.
Four of the songs-O Prósfigas, La Llorona, Let My People Go, and Ánoixe Pétra are for and by the forsaken, outcast and debased; the other three are hardboiled love songs. The single Galás has talked about is her rendition of Ronnie Earl’s “A Soul That’s Been Abused.”
