there is no Other

Giddens, joined here by multi-instrumentalist Francesco Turrisi, continues and expands her exploration of the tradition of song begun in her previous releases, TOMORROW IS MY TURN and FREEDOM HIGHWAY, to a worldwide scope. A revelatory and fearless defiance of genre and categorization, THERE IS NO OTHER is easily on my list of favorite albums of the year; a gift to the ears.

Pair with: Giddens and Turrisi speaking with David Remnick on The New Yorker Radio Hour podcast.
