Cheyenne Mize "Among The Grey" out June 25th!

Cheyenne Mize and Yep Roc Records are pleased to announce that Mize’s forthcoming album Among The Grey is set for a June 25th, 2013 release.

Among The Grey, the latest release from Cheyenne Mize, fulfills the promise that has been evident in the two previous releases from this Louisville, KY native. Whereas Before Lately (2010) was a slow-burning, introspective, meditative affair, and We Don’t Need (2012) offered an expansion of her sonic palette that left listeners wanting more, Among The Grey stands strong as a cohesive artistic statement, once again showcasing Mize’s considerable skills as a songwriter and arranger.

Sonically Among The Grey is finely polished, and flows naturally between soft and intimate, laid back and lilting, stormy and intense. Mize is equally at ease winding melodies around almost ambient shimmering atmospherics as she is belting out lines over a locked and loaded rhythm section. Lyrically, the album moves between buoyant positivity, wistful melancholy, and proud, almost angry defiance; yet all of the songs share a particular intensity of emotion. The album was recorded with Kevin Ratterman (My Morning Jacket, Andrew Bird) in Louisville on the grounds of a church, which provided unique venues for capturing a variety of sounds and moods - they recorded in the gymnasium for soaring guitar tones, the sanctuary for choir-like backing vocals and huge drum sounds, and even in the basement, where they found the random items used for the unsettling percussion on tracks such as “Give It All.”

Mize first introduced herself internationally on the 10″ release Among the Gold with Bonnie “Prince” Billy – an inventive take on a variety of late 19th century American parlor music. After the release of her debut Before Lately (which The New York Times described as “sweet without being cloying, weary without hopelessness”), and subsequent performances at South By Southwest, Mize was chosen by NPR as one of their ten “Discoveries at SXSW 2011.” We Don’t Need followed in 2012 and served as Cheyenne’s debut on Yep Roc Records. With Among The Grey, Mize continues to solidify herself as an artist to watch in 2013 and beyond.
