Listen to "She Gather Me" HERE.
Indie-folk singer-songwriter, producer, and multimedia artist Pieta Brown debuts her newest side project and moniker, “ii” (pronounced ī ī) with her newest single, "She Gather Me."
ii’s “She Gather Me” is a hypnotic and unconventional EDM dance-amidst-the-chaos ode to joy. The powerful vocal of iconic bass player Gail Ann Dorsey mesmerizes over an inventive blend of deep grooves and euphoric electric guitar loops - colored by ambient background vocals, electronica made from field recordings of cicadas, and brilliant flashes of avant-garde saxophone by Thomas De Pourquery.
Composed, produced, and arranged by ii, “She Gather Me” is an uplifting meditation on body autonomy perfect for any kind of dance floor.
Reflecting on the origins of the new single, Brown adds:
"This playful track arrived so organically - as I was trying to learn more about recording and making music with computers. It started with my electric guitar and lots of confusion and emotion I was feeling connected to the politics and realities surrounding body autonomy rights.
As I started experimenting with recording some electric guitar one evening with the windows open the cicadas were loud and something about the blend of those sounds got me chasing a spark. It was a one-thing-leads-to-another way of landing a song.
As it all slowly unfolded I learned a lot…and had fun…but Gail Ann Dorsey’s delivery of the lyric really makes the track. Gail’s voice encompasses so much beyond the lyrics. For me this track is a kind of urgent ode - to feeling free and intact."
