I wrote a blog like 13 hours ago, so not much has happened since then. I didn't go to the office today cause I had some site visits this morning. But now I'm working from home so I can take a minute to write. About music. And today's music is Sevdaliza.
Sevdaliza is a Dutch (by way of Iran) singer, who decided that being on the Dutch national basketball team and getting her masters degree and starting a career wasn't enough before turning to music. She put out 2 EPs last year, the second of which is Children of Silk. And today's first song, Marilyn Monroe, is off that EP. NPR is loving this song, and I am also liking it quite a lot. The first time I heard it I wasn't sure I did, but then I listened more and realized I do.

Very FKA Twigs, no? Her EP before that, The Suspended Kid, is also very good, though I do prefer Children of Silk (although the cover art for The Suspended Kid is much better). And so from there, we also get to listen to Sirens of the Caspian.
