With an uncanny ability to set an ecstatic mood through her music, the inimitable Anna Lunoe is set to release her debut album, Pearl.
It’s a big moment for the prolific Australian artist, who says she’s laying bare her artistry in ways fans haven’t yet seen.
“When I started out in dance music as a local DJ, my dream was to fill dancefloors and pay my rent,” Lunoe said in a press release. “As my career expanded and the industry changed and I got thrown into new challenge after new challenge, I always felt like my artist voice had to be secondary to my DJ needs. So in a way this marks a kinda colossal shift in perspective on my career to date, putting my artistry at the front in a way I never have before.”
Lunoe, who will soon support The Weeknd on tour in Australia, is known for her versatility as a producer, creating rapturous dance music rooted in house, garage, techno and more. Following July’s release of “Only Love,” she’s now back on Nina Las Vegas’ NLV Records with “Pearl,” the title track from the new album.
Though powerful in her production, Lunoe infuses an airy softness into the uplifting single to deliver a bubbly track fit for both a sunny stroll or a sweaty dancefloor. The record, she says, finds her at her “most sincere.”
“To me the sentiment in this song is about fighting for your spirit and creative force in a world that isn’t really designed for us to hold on to it,” Lunoe said in a press release. “Sonically this was an exercise in emotion and clarifying a feeling as opposed to straight up club tune-making—it’s more sincere than I’ve allowed myself to be publicly before, but those few who get to hear my scruffy demos know this Anna well.”
