California’s Sis and the Lower Wisdom recently released the album called Saints and Aliens via Native Cat.
The record unfolds as a beautiful, dreamy blend of experimental electro-pop and jazz, drifting between lush textures and intimate moments that reward deep listening.
About the album by Jenny:
“Taken from the Gnostic concept of divine wisdom falling from a higher sphere to the lower realms in order to experience itself in materiality, the name expresses how music can be a vessel for spirit to stumble, shimmer, and find form.
Culled from two years of singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Jenny Gillespie Mason’s writing and recording processes, then sharpened in collaboration with the producer and bassist Dougie Stu, the album begins with more direct, intimate songs such as “Crocus Man” and “Wolf Child,” speaking to the pure magic of the saints and aliens among our beloveds. Midway through, the album drifts outward into widescreen meditations (“Yoga of the Soul’s Release,” “Luce”) on the soul’s emergence from behind the veil of the outer self.
The sound exists in a messy, luminous space between improvisational jazz and Mason’s longtime love of catchy pop.
