Goodbye Long Winter Shadow

From the first moments of Goodbye Long Winter Shadow, layers of strings, woodwinds, acoustic guitar and the warm anchoring voice of Maia Friedman blossom as if to say "you are here." The lush arrangements and sage lyricism are an enveloping statement of intent. The California-born, New York-based singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist has honed her sound for years as a member of both Dirty Projectors and Coco. Produced with Philip Weinrobe (Adrianne Lenker, Florist) and Oliver Hill (Magdalena Bay, Helado Negro), the result is chamber pop abounding with melodic intimacy, a world where instruments bob and weave around the heart-stopping clarity of Friedman's voice."Friedman's debut solo work demonstrates cohesion, clear vision, and a keen belief that music can be a balm for the soul." - The Line Of Best Fit
