Hell yeah, new Jessica Moss album coming in October. One track now up, "until all are free" (following tracks called "no one", "no where", "no one is free").
"Unfolding was made slowly, over the last 12 months, the 2nd full year of genocide in Palestine, in direct response to our collective witnessing, our collective grief, as a portal to collective mourning, as a searchlight through our internal weather systems, seeking one another out in the dark." 🍉

If you want to escape to a grainy Scotland for a couple of minutes, my favourite designer, Audrey Cantwell (of Montreal-based Ovate) has made a lovely short Super8 film, with a soundtrack by Jessica Moss.

The solo work of violinist Jessica Moss (outside of Montreal's post-rock circles, see Godspeed You! Black Emperor) reveals an artist whose avant-garde heart placed between post-classical and modern, with a touch of ambient and drone.

Violinist and composer Jessica Moss is an artist who regularly appears on the recordings of Montreal based post-rock ensembles Godspeed You! Black Emperor and Thee Silver Mt. Zion Memorial Orchestra. Her solo work, on the other hand, tends to be planted firmly in the avant-garde world, at and around the intersection between post-classical and stripped down electronic music, though she also brings in elements of post-rock, especially with respect to her use of drones. She is more explorative and impressionistic in her sound than introspective and ethereal, at least for the most part. Her pieces are typically built around her violin, with various electronic filter effects and multitracking, and she certainly does not shy away from taking her time to develop the musical ideas at their core.
Our #SongoftheDay is a solo violin piece by Montreal based artist Jessica Moss. It's an emotionally raw, howling elegy that's also a beautiful piece of recording that puts you right in the same room with her.

One of my favorite musicians and humans, violinist #JessicaMoss (of #SilverMtZion, #OiseauxTempete, etc.), has put up a 42-minute live performance as a name-your-price, with all proceeds going to UNRWA. Check it out for #BandcampFriday, along with her other solo work (I highly recommend her 2021 album, Phosphenes).
