Wendy Eisenberg
Wendy Eisenberg’s self-titled new album is a distinct departure — gorgeously orchestrated baroque folk-rock of remarkable maturity and complexity. With lush string arrangements from co-producer mari rubio (more eaze) adding warmth and depth throughout, these ten exquisite songs trace a fine line between agonised self-examination and celebration. It’s the kind of album that scratches an itch you didn’t know you had.
On “sentence structure in the country,” more eaze leans into her love of song and embraces her upbringing as a folk-oriented fiddle player. Collaboration is key, with Wendy Eisenberg and others helping shape an album where trademark contrasts feel more subtle and fluid than ever. A bewildering array of influences leveraged into a sustained, emotionally resonant and surprisingly compact work of art.
Wendy Eisenberg has shared Old Myth Dying, the second single from their forthcoming self-titled album, out April 3rd via Joyful Noise Recordings. Written during a fever in early 2024, the track pairs an urgent vocal performance with polyrhythmic guitar work, and signals a compelling shift toward folk songcraft — drawing on John Prine, Gillian Welch, and Joanna Newsom — after a decade of genre-spanning work.
Wendy Eisenberg announces their self-titled album, arriving April 3 via Joyful Noise Recordings. Led by the baroque-pop single “Meaning Business,” the record marks a creative milestone for the Brooklyn virtuoso. Drawing from a “personal exorcism” and influences like Judee Sill and David Lynch, these formally daring folk songs offer a spacious, urgent vision of recovery, self-understanding, and profound musical relief.
more eaze (Mari Rubio) announces her new album, sentence structure in the country, out March 20, 2026. While her background in traditional fiddle is long-passed, she imbues these new arrangements with a deep reverence for the evolution of folk forms. Lead single “bad friend,” featuring Wendy Eisenberg, navigates social alienation through a masterful, non-traditional approach to pedal steel and electronics.
New York City’s musical shapeshifter Wendy Eisenberg returns today with “Will You Dare,” a track that trades avant-garde complexity for the sun-drenched directness of early 1970s folk. Out now via Joyful Noise Recordings, the single offers a tender yet sharp look at the risks of romance through Eisenberg’s characteristically incisive lens.
Editrix announce their third full-length and Joyful Noise Recordings debut, The Big E. Arriving with the news is the album’s title track, a maelstrom of galloping fretwork from guitarist/vocalist Wendy Eisenberg, anchored by the stuttering, intricate interplay of bassist Steve Cameron and drummer Josh Daniel. Named for its foundational, recurring E chords, the track operates with a jittery precision, inching them ever closer to the centre of the avant-rock constellation.
