Anna Mieke has announced her new album Theatre will be released on November 18th, 2022. The stunning eight-song collection envelopes listeners in the warmth of her world, radiating with an intense heat that lies closer to the desert or the jungle than her hometown of Wicklow, Ireland. Theatre is the surreal soundtrack of a vast personal plain steeped in nostalgia, family, memory, death and dreaming—where gritty reality and romanticism meet. New single “Mannequin” and its accompanying Anna Heisterkamp-directed video, are the perfect showcase of the album’s dream-like visions. Duality is the thematic core of Theatre, which focuses on the conflict between permanence and temporality, the immaterial and material, and how memories of places and people fade, warp, and reinvent themselves over time. Ultimately, though, the album is more about sensation than theme. “Perhaps the music enables some form of dreamlike movement towards an imaginary place,” Anna Mieke says. “I’m just creating a sound world to escape to, built from moments in time. I hope it reminds someone else of their own experience…memories of youth infused with an intense warmth” A captivating artistic statement, Theatre finds Anna Mieke at her most assured and poetic as she contributes a challenging, exciting new voice to alt-folk. Listen to Anna Mieke’s latest single, ‘Mannequin’, which follows ‘Twin’ and ‘For A Time’ released earlier this year, along with newest track ‘Seraphim’.
