Kris Delmhorst

Kris Delmhorst joins the Road Ramblers artists at the Depot!

"For me, Rickie Lee Jones represents artistic fearlessness and uncompromising freedom," Delmhorst tells TBS. "I dont generally include covers on my albums, but while we were in the studio for this one we caught a version of 'The Horses' and it ended up feeling like it belonged. I love how it resonates with the records themes, persistence, struggle, and hope. And I love the idea of RLJs presence gracing the proceedings like an honored guest, a patron saint."

World-weary but hopeful, Delmorst responds to a time of global anxiety with a missive straight from the chest. Long Day in the Milky Way invites the listener to look both out and in, to take in the full kaleidoscope of lifes contradictions - frustration, transcendence, heartbreak, love - and to locate the grace within the struggle, the beauty in the dark.
Called bold and brilliant by the Boston Globe and transcendent by the LA Times, Delmhorst is a veteran of the indie Americana world, with vivid songwriting, soulful delivery, and adventurous arrangements that stretch the limits of genre. Shes been compared to artists as various as Anaïs Mitchell, Lucinda Williams, and Juana Molina - though she cites Rickie Lee Jones, in all her fearless joy and complexity, as an artistic north star.
