Limited to 500 colored vinyl copies, with digital download card. Maria Taylor's Something About Knowing beckons with the opening track "Folk Song Melody," a mesmerizing acoustic-with-celestial-atmospherics composition crafted around a wordless singsong passage that's instantly familiar. "That section says everything without words and the rest of the record fills in the emotions," she says. And the emotions brimming on the album are bliss and contentment. On the title track, with a molasses flow, Maria names her blessings from the diurnal to the divine. Here she sings: "I got you/I got me/I heard the sweetest voice call me mommy/got my old 5 string/I've got everything." The music is balmy with a sweetly swaying groove, angelic backup vocals, gospel organs, and a shooting star guitar melody. The stunning "Tunnel Vision" is expansive and chiming pop with a lose-yourself-on-the-dance-floor beat. Maria Taylor has released four solo albums and an EP, and has been lauded for her collaborations with artists such as Bright Eyes, Michael Stipe (R.E.M.), Moby, David Barbe (Sugar, Drive-By Truckers, Son Volt), and Crooked Fingers.
