“She could
freely break hearts and fill dark, smoky rooms with her confident and alluring
songs.” – NPR
“’Same
Illusion’ is an acknowledgment that reality is just a distortion,” says
Seattle’s Barbara Trentalange of the
title track from her upcoming new album, out January 28th, 2014. As such, the video for the song (recently
premiered via Seattle-based music discovery website SSG
Music) was shot in grainy black and white, giving it a dreamlike
quality.
“The main characters are mirrors and water. The
mirrors are the illusions we create for ourselves and the water is out
collective unconscious I'm suggesting we smash the mirrors and jump into the
pool,” Trentalange explains. The clip also showcases the singer's live
band: Arthur Roberts (The Posies, Peach) on Guitar, Janice Lee
(Seattle Philharmonic) on Piano, Jason Harris-Talley (Modest Mouse) on Bass, and Stuart McLeod (who also plays on the
new album) on drums. As with all
previous Trentalange records, Same
Illusion was produced by Martin
Feveyear (Brandi Carlile, Mark Lanegan, Jessie Sykes), who Trentalange
met during her time as a touring member of Crooked
Fingers.
“I wanted to draw on my love of soul music and singer-songwriters
for this record,” listing Dusty
Springfield, Stevie Wonder, Dolly Parton, Lou Reed, Nina Simone,
and Bruce Springsteen as artists
that influenced the tightly focused album.
“I needed to wait until my daughter was in pre-school before I could concentrate
on writing again,” Trentalange says
of her new life as both artist and mother. “And once she was in school, I
treated making this record like a day job.”
Same Illusion by Trentalange arrives on January 28th, 2014. Contact Josh
Bloom at Fanatic for
