Allegra Krieger has unveiled a new collection of unreleased materiel, Relief, directing all proceeds to “friends & strangers alike who have lost so much in the recent LA fires.” The record is “available for a short period of time, like all things,” the singer-songwriter wrote on Bandcamp. Listen to three tracks from it below.
“These are all voice memos of songs that have never been performed or released,” Krieger noted. “Mostly recorded in the moments just after they were written (2019-2023).” The Bandcamp description includes a quote from the late David Lynch: “The whole world is wild at heart and weird on top.”
Krieger’s most recent album was last year’s Art of the Unseen Infinity Machine. Most of its songs were written after the artist survived a fire in her NYC fifth-floor apartment caused by a lithium battery explosion on the first floor’s e-bike shop.
