current release: "The Prince of Truth" (Constellation)



Beginning with her first Constellation release in 2006, Carla Bozulich's Evangelista project has steadily been gaining recognition as a unique, uncompromising and highly compelling confessional/cathartic sonic voyage, featuring some of the strongest, most challenging work Bozulich has produced in a fascinating and fearless musical career that spans two decades (Ethyl Meatplow, The Geraldine Fibbers, Scarnella). Evangelista landed on the cover of UK music magazine The Wire in June 2008, following the release of the group's second album, Hello Voyager (which also made The Wire and several other mags' year end lists). Bozulich/Evangelista has also recently appeared at numerous prestigious music festivals, including FIMAV (Musique Actuelle) in Canada, Le Weekend in Scotland and the Ruhrtriennale in Germany.



With Prince Of Truth, Bozulich has shaped her Evangelista group into something more intense, more committed, more complex and more sonically and compositionally adventurous than ever.



Having toured extensively throughout North America and Europe during the year-and-a-half following the release of Hello Voyager, Evangelista has coalesced around a core trio, with Bozulich and bassist Tara Barnes joined by keyboardist/sound artist Dominic Cramp, while sound artist and multi-instrumentalist Lisa Gamble also played a significant role through this period, helping to write several tunes and occasionally joining the band on tour.



Conventional song structure is mostly absent from Prince Of Truth; the pieces are built from an extremely diverse set of sound sources, taking shape through layers of accumulation and juxtaposition, foreground and background, sudden shifts, suspensions and dissolutions – with Carla's commanding voice and brilliant lyrics providing the through-line.



Bozulich and her Evangelista group have forged a powerful, chilling, challenging and articulate new work, with Carla at the helm but certainly not alone. Her assembled crew has mounted a most elaborate rigging, unfurled a panoply of strangely-patterned sails, and charted some bold new territory indeed.



Prince Of Truth is also a sort of Pro Tools fantasia wrought from purgatory, not only figuratively and stylistically, but quite literally as well. Initial tracking was scheduled at the Hotel2Tango studio in Montreal, with regular Evangelista collaborators Shahzad Ismaily, Lisa Gamble, Thierry Amar, Nadia Moss and Ches Smith all in attendance. On day two of the sessions, a nasty throat infection Carla had been fighting on a preceding tour evolved into full-blown pneumonia, confining her to bed for the ensuing week. The band went on to track the song foundations, along with a pile of extras, outtakes and overdubs, and Bozulich returned to her Los Angeles home with these stacks of tracks digitized from the analog master tapes. Over the next two months, Carla, Tara and Dominic would de- and re-construct these sessions, with Carla adding vocals and rallying additional contributions from Jessica Catron, Ezra Buchla, and Nels Cline. The result is an album of searing and beguiling depth, occupying an entirely original zone at the intersection of improv, noise, post-industrial and post-punk music and the incantatory/seductive/soul persona of the chanteuse.



Prince Of Truth by Evangelista is available in custom CD and LP packaging using 100% recycled paperboard and featuring reproductions of two stunning paintings by Jesse McCloskey. The album is also available digitally.
