Adrianne Lenker - Hours Were the Birds LP (Due Out 11/12/2026)
£25.00
Please note; this is a pre-order item due for release 11th December 2026.
While her output with Big Thief is what brought her music to the attention of most, their first record is not the beginning of the story.
“I moved to New York and, starting from complete scratch, had nothing to show anybody that was representing what I did, other than stuff I made when I was 13. So, I decided I should record a solo album of my songs.”
In 2013 Lenker returned to her hometown of Minneapolis and entered Terrarium Studios with producer Rob Oesterlin, where she laid down ten songs on acoustic guitar. “It’s basically just like a live solo show,” Lenker describes, “but with an added twist.”
Drenched in beautiful imagery and intimate stories, it is the work of a woman on a journey, conquering new territory with bravery and honesty.
