Raw and bare boned, Deep Cuts, debut solo album from Marion Raw, is comprised of home recordings and capsuled broadcasts. Each track is sewn together to create a ghostly snapshot of a long lost cassette, unearthed far from home, broadcasting into an unknown, perhaps (not so) distant future.
Last year, Raw shared 3 tracks from Deep Cuts — "Deportee," "Si No Te Hubieras Ido," and "If I Could Turn Back Time." In late 2020, Raw performed a stripped down, "In My Room" live stream set for Rolling Stone Mexico, offering listeners a taste of what's to come, in an intimate setting, one that foreshadows the sonic narrative and footprint of the home recorded quality of the album. Deep Cuts travels on a ghost highway somewhere between the Mexican - U.S. border, traversing a haunting terrain laden with unpolished collections of covers and original recordings — tattered Americana musical postcards — all completed on an old dusty four-track Tascam, after months of isolation. Deep Cuts is due out in April 2021. The album unearths Raw's solo career, and will be followed by an already recorded and produced Sophomore release and accompanying visuals. |
