Title: Age Of Apathy Artist: Aoife O'Donovan Label: Yep Roc Records Product Type: COMPACT DISCS UPC: 634457056961 Genre: Folk Release Date: 2022-01-28 Number of Discs: 1
2022 release. Produced by fellow Grammy-winner Joe Henry (Bonnie Raitt, Rhiannon Giddens) and featuring guest appearances from Allison Russell and Madison Cunningham, Age Of Apathy finds O'Donovan's gift for poetic imagery and unconventionally alluring melody in full bloom as she confronts the sense-dulling barrage of the digital age. Amid symphonic arrangements that reveal a stunning mastery of her craft, Aoife puts forth a statement of defiance and radical love - one that reaffirms her as one of our most vital songwriters today. O'Donovan recorded Age Of Apathy through a unique arrangement with Full Sail University in Winter Park, FL, logging daily hours on-site at their studio with Grammy-nominated engineer Darren Schneider (Deep Purple, Koryn Hawthorne, Trivium) - who also mixed the album - all the while collaborating entirely remotely with Henry. While her previous albums were composed and recorded in an adrenalized rush between tours, the creation of Age Of Apathy was more deliberate and methodical - a rare silver lining amid the stillness of COVID living.
