Emma Swift "Blonde On The Tracks" 2020 + Robyn Hitchcock & Emma Swift "Love Is A Drag" 2016 | TWILIGHTZONE

Well this is interesting! After so much Robyn on his own and looking at his solo albums there comes this from The Twilightzone
Emma Swift "Blonde On The Tracks" 2020 + Robyn Hitchcock & Emma Swift "Love Is A Drag" 2016 - 7"/45rpm

“Robyn Hitchcock and Wilco's Patrick Sansone guest on this nifty collection of Dylan covers, including a quick-on-the-draw 'I Contain Multitudes'." -UNCUT MAGAZINE
“An Emma Swift performance can bring you to the edge of tears, because her voice is both heartbreaking and heartbroken all at once. It takes a lot of resilience to be so vulnerable. She brings this strength and beauty to her upcoming album “Blonde On The Tracks,” a collection of her interpretations of Bob Dylan songs.”
 - Gina Frary Bacon, WFMU New York
"Australian singer-songwriter Emma Swift has recorded an album of Dylan covers titled Blonde on the Tracks which is set for release in August. And the first track she opted to release was not a familiar classic but a stunningly warm, heartfelt version of “I Contain Multitudes.” She serves it up as a hypnotic, melodic hymn, very reminiscent in style of vintage Gillian Welch, resulting in something exceptionally beautiful." - Hope Silverman, Cover Me Songs


Robyn Hitchcock & Emma Swift "Love Is A Drag" 2016 - 7”/45rpm
“Everything you want, crashes like a car,” sing Robyn Hitchcock & Emma Swift on “Love Is A Drag,” the deliciously bittersweet celebration of ardor and adoration that marks their second 7 inch release as a duo and Hitchcock’s first new music in more than two years. The vinyl single/digital download – backed by the equally paradoxical “Life Is Change” – is available from Hitchcock and Swift’s own Tiny Ghost Records.
