Let It Be You - Joan As Police Woman & Benjamin Lazar Davis - Vinyl LP Record (Arrives in 50 days)

A true collaboration from studio to stage, from two artists well known for their ability to effortlessly cross musical genres. A deeply soulful artist Joan As Police Woman has famously worked with Antony (Anohni), Rufus Wainwright, Lou Reed and David Sylvian and Benjamin Lazar Davis is a talented multi-instrumentalist who currently performs with Okkervil River, Cuddle Magic and Bridget Kearney.

Joan and Ben met each other after separate trips to Africa. Ethiopia for Joan as part of Damon Albarn's Africa Express, and West Africa for Lazar to study traditional music. They initially bonded over Central African Republic Pygmy musical patterns and ended up writing this album together loosely inspired by this music. In first single 'Broke Me In Two' you can hear this influence in the staccato bit-crushed guitar line that plays throughout. But ultimately it's a joyous, love-soaked pop song.

A setting for an album packed with intricate rhythms, playful vocals, analog synth lines, distorted guitars and most all, songs that stick.
