Category: asthmatic kitty news sufjan stevens
The singer and songwriter Sufjan Stevens has long had plans to make a concept album for each of the US’s 50 states.
In 2003 he released ‘Michigan’ and in 2005 the ‘Illinois’ album. Now he has suggested that the next state he will tackle in his series of concept albums will be California.
It has previously been speculated that Stevens would also write his next opus about Oregon, Rhode Island or Minnesota. In late 2005 and early 2006 Stevens played a new instrumental track titled “The Maple River.” The Maple River mentioned in the title of the song runs through several counties in southern Minnesota.
But Sufjan Stevens made brief mention to a possible collaboration with Asthmatic Kitty labelmate Rafter on an album about California in a recent interview. In an interview with Rafter he asked: “Being a native of the Golden State, do you want to collaborate on a record about California?” Rafter answered: ” Yes! I think we could probably have a really nice time making a great record.”
Well let it be a Surprise!!!
