CD - Sera Cahoone - I've Missed You All These Years (Pre-Order)

1CD - released August 28

Sera Cahoone has been a staple of Seattle's music scene for decades, both as a member of iconic indie bands Carissa's Wierd and Band Of Horses, and as a solo artist. On her sixth record, Cahoone is in full command of her powers. In its ability to hold loss and connection in the same hand, "I've Missed You All These Years" is triumphant, a celebration of life rooted in the knowledge of its fleeting nature.

The eight years that shaped "I've Missed You All These Years" were marked by profound change: Sera lost her best friend, her father, and her dog all within a short time period. But this record is emphatically not about the darkness; it's about what happens after the storm clears, the moment when you begin to come back into your body after a dark winter. The product of a lifetime spent performing and producing music, the album traverses blues, folk, pop, and country, evoking Loretta Lynn in one song and Lucinda Williams in the next. It's a testament to the strength that creativity and community brings, a portrait of an artist who knows herself completely.
