Kali Malone Readies New Album Burning Song
Stephen O’Malley and Lucy Railton join Malone for the LP, led by “Heavy With Fruit”
Kali Malone is set to release her new solo album, titled "Burning Song," which is a follow-up to her 2024 album "All Life Long." The album was recorded at the Thomaskirche in Leipzig, Germany, a church where Johann Sebastian Bach served as cantor for 27 years before his burial. Malone performed on the Bach Organ, a modern instrument designed using baroque tunings and temperament.
The album sees Malone joined by guitarist Stephen O'Malley and cellist Lucy Railton, the same trio that collaborated on Malone's 2023 album "Does Spring Hide Its Joy." The announcement of the album is accompanied by a single, "Heavy With Fruit," and a European tour schedule.
Following the success of "All Life Long," Malone has also released the albums "Magnetism" with Drew McDowall and "Music for Intersecting Planes" with cellist and composer Leila Bordreuil. Her landmark album of pipe organ compositions, "The Sacrificial Code," was reissued via Ideologic Organ last year.
The tour dates for "Burning Song" include stops in Lisbon, Portugal; Cologne, Germany; Bern, Switzerland; Bratislava, Slovakia; London, England; and Vernier, Switzerland. The album's tracklist comprises tracks such as "Grieving Figure," "Map the Path," "Bells on a Branch," "Crawling Ashore," "Sounding a Void," "Heavy With Fruit," and "My Eve My Dawn."
