Suzzy Roche and her daughter Lucy Wainwright Roche shed some light on our troubled times on their third collaboration, ‘I Can Still Hear You’.
The recording began in Nashville; then Suzzy and Lucy completed the project from their quarantine homes in NYC. The 11-track album showcases 8 soulsearching, thought-provoking originals and 3 perfectly chosen complementary covers, and features guest appearances by Amy Ray and Emily Saliers of the Indigo Girls. ‘I Can Still Hear You’ explores themes of good and evil, youth and mortality, the absurd and the serious, the real and the imagined, and the connection between what is present and what is gone.
‘I Can Still Hear You’ stands as a special album for both Lucy and Suzzy. “In a time when so many people are suffering,” Suzzy confides, “you hope that you can put something out into the world that will comfort, not in any saccharine way, but in the truest way you know how to.” Lucy adds, “I think the impact of this time on the music and on us remains unseen in some way. It’s still unfolding, but it feels like a mysteriously timed project and I really am glad to get it out into the world.”
