POP3, our annual Climate Conference, is headlined this year by the singular Anna B Savage on Thursday 20th November.
A sense of rootedness is at the heart of her third record 'You and i are Earth', a record that is as much about healing as it is an unbowed sense of curiosity, and, more simply, “a love letter to a man and to Ireland.”
Following on from her critically acclaimed records A Common Turn and in|FLUX, 'You and i are Earth' manages to convey a sense of intimacy, while also being open-ended. Sounds of the sea and bright-eyed strings coax us on opening song Talk to Me, a study in tenderness, which brings us to a place of the elemental. It is a charged signifier that sets the tone, “I don’t think I feel nervous because of the intimacy of it,” says Savage, “the thing I feel nervous about is that it is so delicate and subtle, and the attention economy has made us desire big shiny things that will whisk us away.”
Yet 'You and i are Earth' transports differently, swept along by an abiding sense of calm.
This will be a solo performance.
