About | “World To Save”
 
“Taking on the witchy vibe of Stevie Nicks, the art pop of Kate Bush, and the fractured psychedelic folk of Mazzy Star, Conlee constructs her own world on Indulgence,” says Under The Radar in its premiere coverage of Kim Conlee aka frigidkitty’s new single “World To Save,” going on to call it, “a stirring and intimate introduction to her artistry.”
 
When the artist describes her own work, she also mentions “paranoid” trip-hop grooves, and a “sour minor-key psychedelic whorl.” About “World To Save,” Conlee says the song “reflects upon the pain and disappointment of a failed friendship.  Life changes, people move, convictions are compromised, miscommunication abounds! Can a long-distance friendship endure through all of it? Is anyone to blame if it doesn’t? Distance makes the heart grow fonder, but does it make relationships stronger?”

frigidkitty | About
 
 
Following a 40-second introduction that feels like you’re entering an upside-down Disney netherworld, Lexington, Kentucky’s Kim Conlee bares claws.
 
To scratch an itch? To draw blood?
 
The answer depends on the listener, because Conlee is the kind of sonic seducer that leaves you wondering if you are the victimizer or the victim.
 
Conlee’s vocals envelop like one of Stevie Nicks’ shawls, and while she is accompanied by a slew of talented friends throughout Indulgence, it is her own personal backing band of one (playing piano, guitar, flute, synthesizer, and other assorted electronics) that keep these songs in a personal space that feels intentional.
 
To hold you down? To lift you up?
 
Keep listening to find out. Listen again to reactivate doubt.
 
Indulgence, fifteen years in the making, is the debut album from frigidkitty. Look for it on Dec. 18th, 2020 from the Desperate Spirits label, preceded by the single “World To Save,” out now.
