Life, twice by Augmeanted
Chosen as a Pitch Perfect Top Album of 2022,
Augmeanted’s debut album takes its name from this Anais Nin quote, “We write to taste life twice, in the moment and in retrospection.”
The 10-track recording, produced at Bemidji’s Supple Studios, is a mix of vocally-driven meditations on the moments that leave us speechless and violin-driven improvisations that say what’s impossible to say.
The album was made possible in part by a Region 2 Arts Council Individual Artist grant with funding from the McKnight Foundation and by the fairy dust and sheer wizardry of Troy Foss.
