#Two worlds 3 2021 how to#
I'd been thinking about how to balance being settled and also being up in the clouds. I'd been thinking about lost friendships. I had been thinking about my Grandmother a lot, so there are a couple of songs about her. So when I moved back I had the idea to go up to an analogue studio in the North of Ireland and specifically record that song there, so we booked in some time at the studio and I hurried to finish some other scraps of songs I had lying around with the idea of recording them live and just seeing what happened. It was the wrong atmosphere, it was summer and a sunny day and just was not repressive enough in the way that it can be here! So I didn't really feel real singing it as I didn't feel held back at all! It felt like singing to a brick wall and it wasn't going anywhere. I had actually tried to record this song in Portland, Oregon the previous year but at the time it just did not work. So I revisited a song I had half written a few years previous called 'Don't Shut Me Up (Politely)' and I found that moving home, I had the ammunition to finish it. Last year I moved back to Galway, Ireland where I mostly grew up and I was feeling and noticing again the repressive and oppressive environment. Most of these songs were written in the last year in Ireland and they're all about the different feelings I had at the time.

Tompkins Square's Josh Rosenthal noted on social media, "I don't usually have the opportunity to say something political about the music I put out, but in the case of Brigid Mae Power's new single, I think this song may resonate with any woman who's been gaslit, mansplained to, paid less, bullied, sexually harassed by a C-List celebrity or famous movie producer, had her birth control systematically taken away, or told she had to go to another country or across state lines to get an abortion."
The sadly topical first single, "Don't Shut Me Up (Politely)", seems to express what's on the minds of many women right now. Q Magazine listed the album as a "Top Tip" for 2018, stating "(The Two Worlds) is full of droning ballads laced with defiance." 'The Two Worlds' was produced by Peter Broderick and recorded at Analogue Catalogue in County Down, Ireland.
Power's self-titled debut, released on Tompkins Square in 2016, received wide praise from UNCUT (9/10, "Masterpiece"), MOJO (4 stars), The Guardian (4 stars), Irish Times (4 stars) and was featured on NPR World Cafe, as well as several BBC programs. The album will be released worldwide in all formats February 9th, 2018 on San Francisco's Tompkins Square label. Ireland's Brigid Mae Power returns with a new album, 'The Two Worlds'.
