Ane Brun Announces Details of New Album
Swedish based Norwegian Ane Brun has announced details of her sixth studio album, When I’m Free, which will be released by her own label, Balloon Ranger Recordings, on September 4, 2015, as a CD, LP and digital download.
Largely written in her Stockholm studio space, When I’m Free’s genesis lies in Brun’s enforced cancellation in late 2012 of a North American tour with Peter Gabriel. Whereas she had previously struggled occasionally with her health concerns, letting them weigh her down, this time she had an epiphany.
“One night,” she recalls, “I woke up and thought, ‘Why are you so afraid? It doesn’t help you in any way. Let your mind and body rest so it can heal.’ When I recovered, I experienced an almost bliss-like feeling. I’d replaced all the worrying and fear with gratitude, and the feeling lingered. So somehow, since 2012, I’ve been able to approach life very differently than before.”
