How was 2018 for you?
Félicia Atkinson: Life-changing! I toured, travelled and recorded my new and future album while being pregnant. I saw fjords and canyons, and in September I gave birth to my son! I also released two output: the tape Coyotes on Geographic North and an LP with Jefre Cantu Ledesma, Limpid As The Solitudes, on Shelter Press.
Highlights?
My live show with a grand piano at Issue Project Room last March in New York, and the same month Cal Arts students interpreting one of my scores during an Alison Knowles event.
Lowlights?
Reactionary politics in general, especially in the USA, Italy, Brazil… The destruction of the planet by its humans and the not welcoming politics in the world toward migrants.
Song of the year?
Kurt Vile – Bassackwards
What’s your New Year’s resolution?
I don t believe in New Year’s resolutions.
