Zola Jesus Announces B-Sides and Remixes Album, Shares New Single and Announces 'Snow Blood Tour' With Alice Glass
By: Stephi Wild Feb. 23, 2018
Singer, songwriter, and record producer Zola Jesus has announced a new album of previously unheard tracks and remixes titled Okovi: Additions, an experiential interpretation of her 2017 critically acclaimed album Okovi, released on Sacred Bones Records. The news comes with the announcement of the US 'Snow Blood Tour,' co-headlined with Alice Glass, new European dates (full NA + EU dates below) and the release of "Bound," the first single from the project which is streamable now via the Adult Swim Singles Program.
Okovi: Additions couples four previously unreleased tracks from the Okovi sessions with four remixes by a diverse cast of artists spanning a spectrum of genres including Johnny Jewel, Katie Gately, Wolves in the Throne Room, and Joanne Pollock (formerly one half of Poemss with Venetian Snares' Aaron Funk). Zola will also perform live at House of Vans in Brooklyn on February 23rd. Listen to the new single now and see two quotes from her on the forthcoming album below.
"The songs on Additions traverse a vast amount of sonic ground, but taken together, they cohere remarkably well as an album, all while serving to enrich the experience of Okovi," Nika Roza Danilova explains, "The four new songs were intended to be on Okovi. Each of them represents a snapshot of my journey in making the record, and is just as precious to me as the songs that made it onto the final track listing. The remixes are beloved in their own way, as most were born from organic circumstances, and have drawn the original songs into completely new atmospheres."
