Organismo

Adron has infused her newest full-length record, Organismo, with an international texture and a remarkably vintage, yet highly original and polished modern sound. She adds to her songs a unique array of embellishments such as bird calls and other vocalizations, sometimes using her voice to mimic the instrumentation of a full orchestra, and sometimes singing in Portuguese and French, using language as another instrument. Released November 2010, Organismo features also the extensive collaboration of versatile and virtuosic percussionist Colin Agnew, and keyboardist Chris Case, as well as Ryan Donald and Josh Martin, both members of another notable Atlanta indie band, Little Tybee. Other sounds on the record include flute, harpsichord, marimba, Moog synthesizer, a full Brazilian Maracat arrangement, and a varied assortment of random non-musical objects found in the studio. Adron's youthful exuberance and adroit musicianship together form a style both distinctive and pleasing, but it is her rare ability to meld genre, geography, and musical epochs that reveal the true breadth of her talent.
