In celebration of Pride 2023, The Album Club will feature K.D. Lang ‘Ingénue’ on Tuesday 27th June at 8pm BST.
K.D. Lang’s Ingénue is an absolute masterpiece that solidifies her status as a true musical luminary. Released in 1992, this album showcases Lang’s unparalleled vocal prowess and poetic songwriting. From the hauntingly beautiful “Constant Craving” to the emotionally charged “Save Me,” ‘Ingénue’ takes listeners on a captivating journey of introspection and vulnerability. Lang’s rich and soulful voice, coupled with her impeccable phrasing, creates an ethereal atmosphere that lingers long after the last note fades away. With its evocative lyrics and atmospheric production, Ingénue remains an iconic work of art, a testament to K.D. Lang’s extraordinary talent and profound musical vision.
In advance of the meeting, Colleen will send out a ‘Musical Lead-Up Playlist’ of 10 songs – music that will set the tone for the deep album listening featuring Lang’s inspirations and other bands in their milieu at that time.
At the meeting, itself, Colleen tells the story behind the album for about 20 minutes and then we listen to the album in its entirety without interruption following our listening guidelines – phones off and no talking. To be clear, its up to you to source whichever copy of the album you can get your hands on – streaming online, CD, vinyl – whatever it is. We don’t broadcast the album over Zoom as you won’t have a great listening experience.
After the album finishes we reconvene and have a discussion about the album and our listening experience.
Patreon Members and higher tiers can attend the Album Club. You can subscribe here and don’t forget you can unsubscribe at any time.
We hope you can join us and thanks for listening!
Our events really resonate with people and one of our newest members sent this testimonial after her first Album Club last month:
“I wanted to thank you for the warm welcome and the knowledge there are friendly like minded people across the world out there and you brought us all together through a shared love of music. That is awesome. I have been mostly alone through the pandemic (am single, live alone – and yes do have the requisite cats to complete the stereotype!😂) My 25 + year career has been in events, currently in the West End of London so in my “normal” life I would be out at least 3/4 times a week. That has all obviously completely stopped for me and it has been a somewhat of a struggle mentally, music has kept me sane and Sunday’s event really helped my sanity. I truly hope to meet you in real life at some point to say thank you in person and look forward to engaging in more events.” – Angela
