"We tend to measure life by the dots on the timeline, but Colourgrade studies all the distance in between, absorbing each moment and making space for it to settle. The songs move between rumination and enchantment, simulating the multiplicities of being alive" - Pitchfork Best New Music 8.5

Today, Tirzah releases Highgrade (*Vinyl release set for Sept 23rd). A full reworking of the ten tracks on her acclaimed second album Colourgrade, Highgrade has remixes from the likes of Arca, Actress, Lafawndah, Loraine James and Speakers Corner Quartet. Moving through orchestral jazz, deconstructed rnb and minimal electronica, Highgrade, like all Tirzah’s music is not easily definable by genre, and all the better for it.
Tirzah says on Highgrade: “The pieces can live another life and come together as a collection of hybrids. So very grateful to all the artists. Thanking them all for the music.”
