Melody Gardot to release new album in June

Melody Gardot will release new album Currency of Man on 1st June 2015 it has been confirmed.

Currency of Man sees Gardot collaborating again with Grammy Award-winning producer Larry Klein. The two previously worked together on Gardot’s 2009 album My One and Only Thrill.

The follow-up to 2012’s The Absence, Currency of Man goes in a completely different direction musically exploring jazz, blues and R&B.

Talking about the album Melody says, “Every album is a journey and this disc in some ways is a leap into the unknown. After spending time in LA, the songs all became about the people I’d meet: people who were experiencing life on the fringeā€¦ā€

The singer adds, ā€œWe have a slamming horn section and these cinematic and somewhat existential arrangements. It’s a body of work where Larry and I discover an electric side of the songs, something I’ve never done before.. Itā€™s all an exploration, but it feels good to have something new, and even a bit strange.”
