CD released: May 20, 2016
Recorded in NYC, Tokyo, and Texas, All We Will Become draws upon the influences of Chao's upbringing - the celebratory and elegiac sounds of New Orleans in "Elater," ?O's Bollywood of RD Burman in "You," classical coda in "In Reverse," Tx high school drum corps of "Optical," and lineage of Richard Thompson and Neil Finn, juxtaposed with modern production - to create pop songs that look forward, yet are grounded in specific sense of place & tradition. |
