Albumaktuella Basia Bulat är på Europaturné och idag släpps nya singeln Disco Polo!
Idag släpps "Disco Polo" som är tredje singel hämtad från det kommande albumet Basia´s Palace som kommer den 21 februari via Secret City Records/Playground Music. Låten är döpt efter en polsk musikgenre som hennes pappa älskade.

Basia berättar: “This is an homage to what I feel like is the two sides of my musical lineage–my mother was a classically trained piano and guitar teacher, and my father’s favourite genre was Disco Polo. About the only thing we could all agree on was the oldies radio station that was the peacemaker of our home when I was a child,” och fortsätter: “I wanted to write something that felt like a folk tale about those genres and how they still influence me after all this time–even now every time I sit down at the piano all those different musical worlds swirl around each other and try to dance together in my mind.”
Med singeln följer en elegant video regisserad av Nora Rosenthal som även regisserade Baby och My Angel. Hon berättar: “From the outset, Basia and I had spoken about having three generations of women appearing in ‘Baby,’ the first video in this series, but for ‘Disco Polo’ we wanted Louise, the woman of Basia’s mom’s generation in ‘Baby,’ to appear alongside her peers – all of them in their own way so elegant and vibrant – acting as a chorus of backup dancers,” Rosenthal explains. “For some reason we never talked about referencing ‘Disco Polo’ as a genre of 1990s Polish music until we were practically on set, but I like to think that somehow the fan blowing Basia’s hair is its own little reference to that era.” Länk till video, se nedan.
Singel och album är producerade av Basia tillsammans med Mark Lawson (som även producerade albumen Tall Tall Shadow och The Garden), mixat av Tucker Martine (Beth Orton, Neko Case, The National).
De tidigare singlarna “Baby” och “My Angel” har hyllats av BBC Radio 6 Music, KCRW, Flood Magazine, Rolling Stone France, Exclaim!, Brooklyn Vegan, CBC Music, Indie 88 med flera.
Imorgon startar Basias Europa-turné där hon supportar Efterklang och den 27/1 gör hon ett showcase på Pet Sounds Bar i Stockholm!
