New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Today, Becca Mancari released a new recording of her song "Golden" that originally appeared on her 2017 debut album Good Woman. The new version was produced by Juan Solorzano and features harmonies from Mancari's Bermuda Triangle bandmates Brittany Howard and Jesse Lafser. Listen to "Golden" (Acoustic) below:
Stereogum praised "Golden" for its "arresting warmth" and said, "...this stripped down version still manages to feel bright and full as the trio bring the confidence of their gentle, airy voices to the forefront."
"'Golden' is one of those songs that just keeps coming back. The story lives on. For this version, I wanted to recreate the song in way that focused on the vocals and felt dreamy like a memory," explains Mancari. "Juan Solorzano produced and wrote the most beautiful strings on this song which help bring the listener to such a special place. I have been singing 'Golden' on the road with my other band, Bermuda Triangle, and I was thrilled to have my band mates and best friends, Jesse Lafser and Brittany Howard, on harmonies. It's just such a special moment for me, tracked in the same room at Trace Horse Studies. I could not be more excited to share this stripped down version of 'Golden!'"
Good Woman is now available for purchase and streaming via all major retailers.
During the band's first-ever trip to SXSW last month, Mancari and pedal steel player Blake Reams performed "Dirty Dishes" for NPR Music's South X Lullaby sessions. NPR Music said, "'Dirty Dishes' is the introspective centerpiece of last year's Good Woman, and in this South X Lullaby, Mancari removes the clicking pulse of the studio version to underline the song's lonely atmospherics." Rolling Stone and BrooklynVegan named Mancari one of the best sets of the conference.
Over the next few months Becca Mancari will tour with Joseph and The Weeks in the US before traveling to Europe for a summer tour supporting Julien Baker. Find a full list of tour dates below.
