"I have seen this woman perform live a number of times, and one of the great thrills of watching her has been beholding what she has discovered, what she has unearthed in music that other artists wrote," Wesley Morris says of Cécile McLorin Salvant, his guest on the New York Times' Cannonball. "Their songs become hers, and to a listener, they mean something deeper than the original and often sound completely new." The episode is focused on the art of the cover song—a phrase Salvant doesn't use—and opens with a list of Morris's all-time favorites, on which he includes Salvant's take on Kate Bush's "Wuthering Heights," from her 2022 Nonesuch debut album, Ghost Song.

Cécile McLorin Salvant has released a lyric video for "I am a volcano," the opening track to her new album, Oh Snap. You can watch it here. It comes on the heels of a six-part Q&A series in which she reveals, among other things, a discomfort with frogs, such as those featured in the new video.
