CSW Alumna Records New Album
CSW alumna and musician Ella Williams '14 recently recorded a new album that will be released on March 21, 2015!
Ella is currently taking a semester off from college to work on the new album and tour in promotion of its late March release. She shared this note,
"It's a compilation of songs I wrote during my first semester at Grinnell College in Iowa. I drew inspiration from the stark Iowa landscape. I took a Sound Art class in which I created a "Self Portrait Through Sound," which was a series of field recordings of my daily activities at Grinnell (the sounds of me walking to my dorm room, the sounds of crickets and crows on a fire escape, etc.), and this album is a continuation of that. The songs tell a story of my experience in Iowa, from my first experiences in a foreign place, to my final decision to come home and record the songs."
The album is currently available as a pre-order. Follow the link - https://squirrelflower.
