Zola Jesus is to release her new album Conatus through Souterrain Transmissions on September 26th – her follow up to 2010's Stridium II.
Above you can download at your leisure the first track to be unveiled from said new album, entitled “Vessel”.
It's been a dizzying three years for Zola Jesus – aka Nika Roza Danilova – she's gone from outside experimental teenager to an internationally celebrated pop musician. Standing at just 4″11, she's somehow managed to emerge as a figurehead of DIY – a self-produced, self-designed, self-taught independent woman.
More solo project than band, Zola Jesus is not a singer but rather a musician. Helped by her live band – whose drummer Nick Johnson is audible on the above recording and appears on several tracks on the new album – her voice has that immaculate quality; it feels fantastic to listen to.
So, in Zola Jesus and her new album Conatus, we have an artist on the cusp. A truly remarkable talent. Catch Zola Jesus this summer as she hits festivals left, right and centre – The Big Chill, Field Day, End of the Road and Bestival are all to be graced by her presence this season.
