Ana Egge Video Debuts at Billboard

Ana Egge Releases "You Among The Flowers" Lyric Video Debuts at Billboard
 
"It was initially about an attraction and then questioning that and just exploring that little moment of meeting someone," Egge tells Billboard about the "playful" track. "It took me to (John Milton's) Paradise Lost for some reason -- real happy stuff, right? But so much of that song was about that guitar riff that's up front and loud and came from my obsession with playing that riff over and over and finding a melody over it."
 
"You Among The Flowers" was a favorite of producer Alec Spiegelman, "who 'really dug into it' to create a light-spirited track that counters a darker lyrical tone" said writer Gary Graff. "The lyric video -- directed by Nancy Howell and Mark Lerner -- brings a whole other dimension to the track."

In Their Words: “When I first moved to NYC it was such an exciting time. Like it can be for so many people to find such freedom in a city of millions of people in constant change. I lived in a 6’x10′ room that looked out at a brick wall 4′ from the window and slept on a piece of foam on the floor where my head and toes touched either wall. I loved it. My friend Anthony and I would walk along the water on the west side and around Chelsea and laugh about who we didn’t see pass us. He’d see the gay boys and I’d see the girls. My freewheeling early days in the city are in this song. Maybe that’s why it feels so good every time I sing it.” — Ana Egge

White Tiger Review in Aquarian Weekly

Ana Egge: “White Tiger”

  Who do you think of when you think of singer-songwriters? Carole King? Leonard Cohen? Joni Mitchell? Ever since listening to White Tiger by Ana Egge, I think of her. The folk based singer-songwriter is ethereal, her voice soft and sweet, yet so emotional and powerful it could make you cry — as it did me. Her unwavering talent is evident throughout every song on this record. You will know exactly what I mean upon its release on June 8.

  White Tiger is a ten track album and, coincidentally, Egge’s tenth studio album. Let me just say it now: I love every song on this album. And not just the, “Oh, it’s a good song,” kind of love; more like, “I need to force everyone I know to listen to this cover to cover ASAP,” type of love. The purity in Egge’s voice makes you wonder why you haven’t been listening to her first nine albums over the last 20 years.
