Album Notes

In an age of fleeting success and temporary notions, Chris Pureka is an artist of substance, armed with an eye for detail and an emotional intelligence that can switch from withering to compelling with a subtle inflection. Her third studio album, How I Learned To See In the Dark, adds bold new elements to the base she has built over her eight-year career: non-traditional percussion, lyrical abstraction, a new unrestrained vocal quality, and Pureka''s choice of co-producer (longtime friend Merrill Garbus of tUnE-YaRds) all signal an exploration of broader musical soundscapes.
