Anna Calvi announces new EP ft Iggy Pop, Perfume Genius, Laurie Anderson & Matt Berninger (hear 2 songs)

Anna Calvi has announced a new EP, Is This All There Is?, which be out March 20 via Domino. The four songs are all collaborations, featuring Iggy Pop, Perfume Genius, Laurie Anderson (a cover of Kraftwerk’s “Computer Love”), and The National‘s Matt Berninger.

Anna says becoming a mother influenced the new EP, as did her work on TV series Peaky Blinders. “Scoring the final two seasons of Peaky Blinders really altered how I create music,” says Anna. “I always used to imagine my songs as mini films, but with this EP I wanted to explore a narrative which could exist throughout all the songs.”

The Perfume Genius collab, a cover of Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy’s “I See a Darkness,” was released back in October, and Anna has just shared “God’s Lonely Man” which is a duet Iggy Pop; their voices sound great together on this dark and glammy track. “He’s disruptive, raw, and honest — a singular force,” Anna says. “His presence was so perfect for the narrative of this song.”
