Songwriter/Guitarist Anjimile Explores New Sonic Territory on 'The King'

Soundcheck | Dec 14, 2023

Singer and guitarist Anjimile made a striking impression with his 2020 album Giver Taker, a buoyant collection of indie folk pop. Now, he’s returned with a new record called The King, a much darker record that wrestles with Anjimile’s journey as a Black trans person in a divided America. The album draws on a wider range of sounds, including elements of metal and contemporary classical music. Anjimile plays solo, unplugged versions of some of these new songs.

Set list: "Animal" "Anybody" "The King"
