Anna Hillburg Announces Tired Girls
It’s a shame that we always pigeonhole San Francisco as a sort of land of dreary fog, particularly when you listen to the music we’ve covered the last few days, like this Anna Hillburg tune. Something in this track provides me with this majestic wistfulness; it’s dripping with nostalgia, but by incorporating the pianos and trumpet throughout, the tune pushes you towards the sun’s rays as they break through clouds. Hillburg’s definitely got her singing pipes down too, moving in between piano lines and that constant buzz of the cymbals tapping in your ear; I love the vocal control, fluttering between short accentuated notes and stretched out belters. Tired Girls, the new LP, is out on October 13th via Speakeasy Studios SF.
