As part of the year-long celebration of Nonesuch Records' 60th anniversary, we launched Nonesuch Selects, a video series in which artists stop by the Nonesuch office, pick some of their favorites from the music library, and share a few words on their choices. Following the first five videos, by Mary Halvorson, Timo Andres, Vagabon, Tigran Hamasyan, and Sam Amidon (all of which you can watch here), The Staves' Jessica and Camilla Stavely-Taylor—whose new album, All Now, was released last month and who conclude their US tour this week—stopped by and chose music by The Gipsy Kings, Emmylou Harris, Joachim Cooder, Steve Reich, and Nickel Creek. You can watch it below and subscribe to the Nonesuch Records YouTube channel for all the latest:

The Staves’ All Now, produced by John Congleton (Sharon Van Etten, Angel Olsen), marks the band’s debut album as the duo of Jessica and Camilla Staveley-Taylor, following their sister Emily’s departure. “There was a delayed reaction to trauma and these big changes out of your control,” Jess says of the period after the February 2021 release of their album Good Woman, as the band—like everyone—was forced to sit with their thoughts. Struggling after two years of deep solitude and pain, The Staves did what they know how to do best: they got back to writing with the idea of going back to basics and focusing almost solely on each other and their guitars as a starting point. You can get All Now and hear it here.

You can hear a playlist of music from The Staves' Nonesuch Selects on Spotify and Apple Music here. You can watch all of the Nonesuch Selects videos here.

    Molly Tuttle has shared the music video for “That’s Gonna Leave a Mark,” from her upcoming album, So Long Little Miss Sunshine, directed by Ebru Yildiz. You can watch it here. “I loved working with Ebru Yildiz on my album cover photoshoot, which features me playing various versions of myself, or characters. I was excited when she suggested we make a music video together that explores the heartbreaker character portrayed in ‘That’s Gonna Leave a Mark,’” Tuttle says. “I was even more ecstatic when she said she wanted to film at the historic Hotel Chelsea in New York City. It was an unforgettable experience to make this video and feel the spirits of the legendary artists and songs that have echoed in the rooms and hallways of the hotel.”
