American artist Becky Krill encourages fans to stand up in passionate new album ‘Little Girl’
Singer-songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist Becky Krill returns with powerfully executed new album ‘Little Girl‘.
Armed with 10-tracks straight from the heart, ‘Little Girl’ is the type of release you’d sing into your hairbrush while dancing around your room, forgetting about any worries that may be on your mind.
Speaking about the leading single ‘Bubble’, Becky Krill shares, “I was very inspired by the Dixie Chicks when I sat down to write Bubble. I guess you could say this is my “shut up and sing” song. Bubble features the Rootstock Republic on strings & noteworthy percussionist Allison Miller on drums.
The song explores how our gender, race & overall identities can put us in harm’s way & encourages everyone (especially young women) to stand up to bullies, racists, chauvinists & oppressors of all kinds.”
Adding to how the track was made, Becky states, “I wrote Bubble at home alone on my guitar. I went into the studio the next day to record it with producer and recording engineer Craig Levy.
Craig had some ideas/suggestions to streamline the lyrics and improve the melody, which I happily accepted. From there I got in touch with Juliette Jones (violin) and Jarvis Benson (viola) of Rootstock Republic to arrange and record the strings.
Cellist Aaron Stokes also performed on the recording, along with drummer Allison Miller (toured with: Ani Difranco, Brandi Carlile, Natalie Merchant). Craig performed the bass, ukelele and banjo parts and I played guitar. Group effort.”
Delicate in places but prominently pop-infused with layers of character, ‘Little Girl’ sounds somewhere between the heartfelt songwriting of Sara Bareilles and the attitude of Alanis Morissette.
Be part of Becky’s transcending new album – it’s an enchanting release destined for greatness.
