Marking the occasion of 20 years since the original release, and coinciding with Vashti’s 80th birthday, DiCristina is pleased to announce “Lookaftering - Expanded Edition”, a reissue of her legendary second album.
The new expanded edition features the original studio album along with a second LP of demos, an alternate take, and a live performance . This edition also comes with a stunning 16 page lyric book featuring a collection of paintings by Vashti’s daughter, Whyn Lewis - paintings that they both say have closely, and coincidentally, reflected the lyrics of the album. Also included are sleeve notes from Vashti, producer Max Richter, and Devendra Banhart.
Originally recorded between 2001 and 2005, the unreleased demos were created at Vashti’s home, with Vashti accompanying herself on electric and acoustic guitar along with a host of experimental instrumentation including synths, accordion, piano, strings, pipe organ, harmonium and recorders. The demos offer a more stripped back sound , with the live version of. “Lately” recorded in 2006 at the Echo in LA , offering a pitch perfect performance by Vashti’s 2006 North American touring band of gareth dickson, jo mango, kevin barker, helena espvall, and kat hernandez.
