In the way of spring cleaning, Burhenn is stripping her songs back to bare bones, and fleshing them out with strings and other organic instrumentation. She\u2019ll present songs she\u2019s toured from all her albums, as well as some new and un-released material, in a whole new way. \u201cIt\u2019s a new year,\u201d Laura says, &quot;and I wanted to make some older things feel fresh, to see and hear them from a different perspective.\u201d<br \/> After touring the world as a member of the Postal Service in 2013, Laura Burhenn (The Mynabirds) took a year to get lost. She drove across the US twice, toured South Africa solo, made her first appearance in London (also solo), and trekked all over Europe with William Faulkner\u2019s words ringing in her ears: \u201cYou cannot swim for new horizons until you have courage to lose sight of the shore.\u201d Finally she found herself in Los Angeles with a suitcase of songs to fill a whole new album.<\/p>\n<p> Lovers Know, The Mynabirds\u2019 third album (released August 4, 2015 on Saddle Creek), was recorded over a yearlong period in Los Angeles, Joshua Tree, Nashville, and Auckland, New Zealand. It\u2019s definitely new territory for Burhenn, forging into 80s, 90s and futuristic soundscapes, recalling Kate Bush, Sinead O\u2019Connor, Jesus and Mary Chain, My Bloody Valentine and even 90s hip hop and R&#038;B. The album may be loaded with a fresh palette of new sounds (swarms of synths, gauzy electric guitars, and electronic drums), but her brooding, unmistakable voice leads the way.<\/p>\n<p> Burhenn has released two previous albums as The Mynabirds on Saddle Creek, What We Lose in the Fire We Gain in the Flood (2010) and GENERALS (2012), both of which were produced by Richard Swift and met by critical acclaim.<\/p>\n<p>at <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/seattle.eventful.com\/venues\/the-crocodile-\/V0-001-000385609-2?utm_source=apis&#038;utm_medium=apim&#038;utm_campaign=apic\" rel=\"nofollow\">The Crocodile<\/a><br \/>\n2200 Second Avenue<br \/>\nSeattle, United States<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/add-your-event\/\">Add your <em>South Africa<\/em> event for free here<\/a> on MyZA.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Spring Fever: Mynabirds West Coast Spring Tour @ The Sunset &#8211; Vaudeville Etiquette A South Africa Event on 2016-03-25 20:30:00 This event is 21 and over The Mynabirds Website Facebook Twitter Links The Mynabirds (moniker of singer-songwriter Laura Burhenn) return to the west coast this spring with a new, intimate and orchestral arrangement of her [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[9840],"tags":[9471,12767,5366,12567,3136,6580,3182,12766,5275],"class_list":{"0":"post-66738","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-eventful","7":"tag-coast","8":"tag-etiquette","9":"tag-fever","10":"tag-mynabirds","11":"tag-spring","12":"tag-sunset","13":"tag-tour","14":"tag-vaudeville","15":"tag-west","16":"entry"},"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/66738","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=66738"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/66738\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=66738"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=66738"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=66738"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
