From Van Dyke Park's twitter, 14 hrs ago: “@CatDadBret: @morningwaltz @thevandykeparks - a new arrangement collaboration for Joanna's new album ”VDP: I'm submitting. She'll decide!!
Can't really discern from this whether we should be expecting something soon-ish or in the distant future
I really don't mind waiting if it means we're going to get an album with Look and Despair on it and Van Dyke Parks arrangements. A second Ys? Yes please!
I'd rather wait another ten years if that's the time it took for her to be happy with it! To be honest I'm a much bigger fan of Ryan's arrangements than Van Dyke Parks'... (+ his twitter account is not exactly making him as a person more endearing to me, though perhaps I should be divorcing that from his potential collaboration on an album... hmm) so if anything I'm hoping for more Francesconi! And of course it would be interesting if she arranged it/parts of it herself..!
i reckon its out early next year, just annoys me that drag city teased us and then gave us nothing, now i'm sitting here waiting for another newsletter
No new information pretty much, except maybe they are hinting at something here: So there you go. A year in the life of a year of Drag City right up to the present day. And we’ve got 2014 well sorted as well! Records large and small! Non-records too. As well as occasionally just a t-shirt. Sometimes it has to be that way. Just maybe.
