Debut Vinyl Album "Meno" by upright bassist Liz Draper
Dark, murky, heartbreaking, and deep Liz Draper’s debut release “Meno” fits squarely in the genre of classicaldoomfolkjazz. Draper has toured the world and recorded with bands ranging from Low, to Charlie Parr, to the Grammy-winning Okee-Dokee Brothers. She currently tours with legendary songwriter Iris DeMent. She set up a microphone in her hallway in late 2024 because she and her instrument had something of their own to say.
Calling on a team of skilled women to move the recording to a dreamsicle pink colored 10” vinyl LP, Draper, makes a statement in sound, action, and process. Enlisting the renowned guitarist Ava Mendoza to master the album, Marie Stier to create the art, Sara Pette from Outta Wax to press the record, and Liatris Records to help guide the whole process, “Meno” was women-forward from inception to release.
The opening track “Prayers For Mim in the Color Marigold” sets the tone for the album with accordion, upright bass and haunting hums blending to take the listener to a serene sanctuary. An homage to the late Mimi Parker of the band Low, Draper honors her friend and bandmate by transforming love laden grief into notes that seem to come from the earth itself. Draper states “music has always been the way I process change, sit with a feeling, how I build an altar for memories in the midst of loss and inner chaos.”
At the onset of perimenopause, Draper is finally ready to take center stage. The album’s four movements provide a window into Draper’s soul, giving voice to a changing body in a changing world. Draper and her bass step outside the boundaries of genre to speak in the language that suits them best, a language you will hunger to learn.
"Meno" now available on Liatris Records
