ANOHNI and the Johnsons: “Why Am I Alive Now?”
Written By Michael Gutierrez
Hard to explain, but this track hits like Jimmy Scott. There’s a vulnerability and brittleness to the delivery. An overwhelming strength lingers just below the surface. Has the world beat you down? There’s a glowing, growling, growing inner spirit that takes flight on orchestral lounge wings. Our highlighted track “Why Am I Alive Now” asks a question that’s not polite to ask. But the artist who titled the full-length album My Back Was A Bridge For You To Cross doesn’t pull any punches.
