PP Arnold: The First Cut is the Deepest - A Soul Legend

PP Arnold is the soul survivor.  Her story is one of musical highs, personal lows, and that extraordinary voice.

She joined the Ike and Tina Turner Revue at the age of 17 then arrived in London in 1966 to support The Rolling Stones. Mick Jagger persuaded her to stay in London as a solo artist and the rest is history. During a five-decade-long career, she’s worked with everyone from Rod Stewart, Eric Clapton, the Small Faces, Nick Drake, and Barry Gibb to Peter Gabriel, Roger Waters, the KLF, Paul Weller, and Primal Scream.

Chelsea Wolfe

Chelsea Wolfe’s latest album, She Reaches Out To She Reaches Out To She, is a rebirth in process. It’s about how such a moment connects to our past, our present, and our future. It’s a powerfully cathartic statement about cutting ties, as well as an important reminder that healing is cyclical and circular, and not a simple linear process. 

METZ

With time, we come to understand the way the joy of connection is mirrored by the void of loss, how the constancy of love is matched only by the impermanence of life, the simple idea that we could not create light if we did not risk the dark—we’d never need to.
