Say A Prayer To The Gods Of Getting Going

Description

With Say a Prayer to the Gods of Getting Going, Squirrel Flower (Ella Williams) delivers her most accomplished and radiant album to date. Fueled by a long tour across the United States, the record explores movement, love, departure, and attachment in a constant quest for renewal. Recorded between an improvised studio in Wisconsin and the Drop of Sun studio in North Carolina, it brings together several friends and collaborators from the independent scene. Tracks like "Reelin" and "Highway Woman" evoke the life of a traveling musician and the need for freedom, while "Not Me" and "Cleveland" showcase a more direct writing style and some of the strongest vocal performances of her career. Co-produced and mixed by Alex Farrar (MJ Lenderman, Wednesday), the album blends folk, indie rock, and introspection with great emotional intensity. Designed as an artistic rebirth, it invites reflection on the past to move forward more effectively. Already praised by Pitchfork, Rolling Stone, The New York Times, and NPR, Squirrel Flower confirms her place among the major singer-songwriters of the contemporary indie scene. This new album will appeal to fans of Phoebe Bridgers, Big Thief, Waxahatchee, or Julia Jacklin.
