New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Daughter of Swords (aka Mountain Man's
Alexandra Sauser-Monnig) kicks off a two-week tour of the United States as special guest of The Tallest Man on Earth this Tuesday, March 1, at Fête
Music Hall in Providence. The tour continues up and down the East Coast with shows in Boston, Portsmouth, New Haven, DC, Richmond, New York City, and Philadelphia, before culminating with two sold-out shows at Old Town School of Folk
Music in
Chicago on March 14 and 15. You can see details and get tickets where available now.
Dawnbreaker, the debut album from Daughter of Swords, was released on Nonesuch in 2019. These ten songs, inspired by a breakup that had yet to happen, lament the inevitable loss but, more important, outline the promise of the future. Working with Sylvan Esso's Nick Sanborn, Sauser-Monnig shaped what began as quiet reflections into confident compositions, crackling with country swagger and a sparkling pop warmth, preemptive odes to the next phase of life. Guests include Mountain Man's Amelia Meath and
Molly Sarlé, bandleader Phil Cook, and guitarist Ryan Gustafson.
