In celebration of the 10-year anniversary of her song “I Have Never Loved Someone” My Brightest Diamond is releasing an Orchestrated version of the song. Watch the famous live session recorded in a hotel bar that made it so popular.
Under her moniker of My Brightest Diamond Shara Worden takes a monumental musical leap inspired by childhood memories of marching bands…watch her new video.
Listen / Watch this great live track of Paper Beat Scissors performing ‘Tendrils’ with Clogs and My Brightest Diamond during the Halifax Jazz Festival at St. Matthew’s Church, Nova Scotia.
A Mothers Day Song or two: from two incredible female artists, one from vocally inspiring Julianna Barwick and one from the lovely Shara Worden (My Brightest Diamond) who is also a mother.
My Brightest Diamond’s third album ‘All Things Will Unwind’ arrives on 10th October and tour date announcements are to follow soon, but in the meantime feast on the video for ‘Be Brave’. It’s a gorgeous slow-burning piece of operatic chamber pop.
The third album from My Brightest Diamond, ‘All Things Will Unwind’ was composed exclusively with the chamber ensemble yMusic (Bon Iver, Antony & the Johnsons, The New York Philharmonic & Rufus Wainwright) and more folk-tinged than much of Shara Worden’s recent work.
It was by complete chance that I came across this release. The chain of events that led me to it are not worthy of a mention, honest. My initial thoughts were that I must have missed something somewhere, I did.
If you haven’t yet heard My Brightest Diamond then this will be a treat. If you have, I’m sure this performance will be rated amongst her best. With simple lyrics that unfold through a mesmerising voice, this ranks amongst my favourite tracks:
