'My Wild West' is Lissie's third studio album; it is a celebration of new adventures to come as she moves back to the Midwest and waves goodbye to her life in California. Lissie's two previous albums, 2010's 'Catching a Tiger' and 2013's 'Back to Forever', both hit Top 20 in the UK charts with the former record going Gold. 'My Wild West', recorded in Nashville with her producer Bill Reynolds (Band of Horses), her band in Ojai and executive producer Curt Schneider in his Studio City home, is Lissie's most personal effort to date. Lissie recently purchased a 10-acre farm in a small town in Iowa - her own "field of dreams;" busy converting the barn into a recording studio, getting used to her new pick-up truck and setting up beehives, she is visibly content in her new life, eager to take on each new adventure and challenge that presents itself. 'My Wild West' opens with 'Hollywood' and closes with 'Ojai' - a fitting tribute to the state she has called home for more than a decade. As the album unfolds, we see a more confident Lissie, self-assured and coming into her own power. Her tales of triumph and self-propelled adventure were inspired by females close and far from home: her aunt who passed away from ALS ('Sun Keeps Risin'), Liberian peace activist and Nobel Prize winner Leymah Gbowee, subject of the documentary Pray the Devil Back to Hell ('Daughters'). Elsewhere, 'Shroud' and 'Go For a Walk' shed light of the yin-yang nature of Lissie's personality, the first, a meditation on depression and isolation, the latter, a heartfelt affirmation of nature's power of renewal.LP - Limited LP on Orange Vinyl.
