Jen Cloher announces new self-titled album
Australian singer-songwriter Jen Cloher is set to release a new, self-titled album August 11 on Milk! Records, co-owned by Cloher and her wife Courtney Barnett. This is Cloher’s fourth album and first since 2013’s In Blood Memory. The record was recorded in Australia and mixed at Loft Studios in Chicago, run by Jeff Tweedy of Wilco fame. It features Barnett on guitar and rhythm section Bones Sloane and Jen Sholakis. The album includes tracks dealing with themes of privilege, self-care, and Cloher’s Maori heritage.
