Newcomer Treya Lam is releasing the next bite of her upcoming debut album: "Sapphire Skies" shows off Treya's own visually detailed lyricism and string skills, with the accompaniment of mentor Kaki Kingand a full team of female musicians, mixers, and engineers. Still to come is Treya's long in-the-works debut, Good News, this June, as well as a grab-bag of local NYC shows, including her own release show (6/7), a gathering in Green-Wood Cemetery (5/29), and a BRIC Celebrate Brooklyn! Event (7/28) (details below).
Kaki King is excited to introduce Treya Lam, the first artist signing to Kaki's own label, Short Stuff Records. A classically trained multi-instrumentalist based in Brooklyn, Treya's debut album, Good News, was produced by Kaki (who also plays multiple instruments throughout the album), and recorded with an array of talented female musicians, most notably Catherine Popper (Ryan Adams, Jack White, Norah Jones) on upright bass, and mixer Erin Tonkon (David Bowie, Esperanza Spalding). Mastered by Sarah Register, Good News is an instant classic, full of the kind of songwriting and raw talent that has never gone out of style, as well as a message of love, longing. Because as Treya says, "It's never too late to have a happy childhood."Videos
