PRESS ON CAROLINE POLACHEK “Caroline Polachek’s best album of her career is a transformative pop experience, a passionate, richly melodic odyssey into the darkest corners of love” - PITCHFORK, BEST NEW MUSIC “Like its predecessor, Desire is an extremely cogent listen. All the pieces fit neatly together into a record that, like Pang, continues to explore the nature of the pop form. Pop on the outskirts of pop.” - NPR “Polachek’s instincts for pop songwriting have sometimes felt almost mathematically precise; on Desire, they’re let off the leash to freakier and far more unexpected places.” - VOGUE “Polachek is on the third — and arguably best — act of her career.” - ROLLING STONE “Caroline Polachek sings with awe-struck sweetness — and touches of hyperpop processing — against an otherworldly backdrop that incorporates electronics, tabla drumming and string sections, at once intimate and abstract." - THE NEW YORK TIMES “The pop star embraces the feminine and ferocious ” - BILLBOARD “We don’t usually cover musical guests in this column, since we focus hard on the comedy sector of late-night variety. But when Caroline Polachek is in this silly and goofy mood, we have to respond.” - VULTURE “Desire is clearly her vision all the way, a forceful and determined effort that vaults her to the front of adventurous pop music.” - VARIETY “Polachek’s new album, Desire, I Want to Turn Into You, locates that realm. It conjures not what new age really was or what it became, but what it once seemed to be from a distance: actual magic. And it represents a culmination for Polachek, who has already cut a shimmering trail through culture.” - THE ATLANTIC “...Nobody is making pop music like Caroline Polachek right now.” - CONSEQUENCE OF SOUND Experimental pop provocateur Caroline Polachek shares a smoldering new live performance music video for “Smoke” directed by Matt Copson. The video premiered on Meta in the U.S. and Mexico and on Instagram worldwide. It will be available on all other platforms on Thursday. “Smoke” resonates as another standout track from Polachek’s latest album Desire, I Want To Turn Into You, heralded by press and fans as a romantic, chaotic and immersive musical odyssey, currently holding court in the #1 spot on Metacritics Top Albums of 2023. Premiering earlier today on Meta and Instagram, this visual is another epic moment in Polachek’s canon of visual masterpieces, and highlights the stunning live production on her current global tour. Featuring Polachek and her live band, Maya Laner, Matthew Horton, and Russell Holzman amongst pulsating volcanos, smoke, and glowing red glyphs, this live visual speaks to an equally indelible aspect of Polachek’s repertoire with her reputation as an incredible performer with instantly recognizable signature choreography. Polachek sings, “You are melting everything about me. Oh don't worry bout me. It's just smoke. And the fallout doesn't phase me. Take a bullet for my baby. For the one thing that'll save me I know,” making for another stellar moment in an already historical year in her career - WATCH HERE. Last week, Polachek brought the first taste of Desire’s live element to The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, performing the Dan Nigro co-produced “Welcome To My Island”- WATCH HERE. Polachek’s knack for impressive lyrical prowess and unfathomable vocal dexterity have led press such as Pitchfork, NPR, Vogue, Rolling Stone, Vulture, The New York Times, Variety, and more citing her as one of the most fascinating artists in the new generation of pop disruptors. Polachek’s 2023 North American live dates for The Spiraling Tour will kick off Friday, April 14th in Philadelphia and make stops in Toronto, Los Angeles, Chicago, and more before wrapping at her sold-out show at the iconic Radio City Music Hall in New York City.
