Elena Setien Another Kind Of Revolution

Elena Setién is an artist defined by her vivid songwriting and nuanced compositions. Her music exudes the bold individualism and sense of empathy associated with her homeland of Spain's Basque region. Her careful arrangements are direct and affecting and give her room for forays into experimentation. Setién is a skilled multi-instrumentalist and performed nearly every part on the record save for a few select guitar parts by Steve Gunn. While Elena's recordings are decidedly pop, she has considerable experience as an improviser. Another Kind Of Revolution, Elena Setién's Thrill Jockey debut, is a work of entrancing, effortless beauty.
