"Less focused on introspection and centered around joy, her new album, Sorry I Haven't Called, is a celebration," NPR's World Cafe host Kallao says of his guest Vagabon (aka Lætitia Tamko)'s new record, released earlier this year. The episode is a mini-concert of four songs from Vagabon's tour, which concludes at the Lodge Room in Los Angeles this Wednesday night. You can hear the set, including three songs from the new album—"Autobahn," "Anti-F***," and "Lexicon"—plus "Water Me Down," from Vagabon's 2019 self-titled Nonesuch debut album, here:

On Sorry I Haven’t Called, Vagabon reinvents herself once again with the most playful and adventurous music of her career. Co-produced by Tamko and Rostam (Vampire Weekend, Haim), the album features twelve vibrant tracks she wrote and produced primarily in Germany that channel dance music and effervescent pop through her own confident sensibilities. “This record feels like what I've been working towards,” Tamko has said. “It's completely euphoric.”

    "I love this idea of 'intersection' for inspiration when it comes to describing American music or its characteristics," classical singer Julia Bullock says in a new video from Boosey & Hawkes for its America at 250 series. "There's no apology for where those inspirations are coming from, so whether it's directly quoting or imitating the sort of collage and then the depth of expression that can come out of the layering effect, I put all these things together because it brings me great pleasure and joy and often surprises me tremendously."
