Krissanthemum is the experimental pop project of New York’s Krissy Lassiter, who is about to release a brand new album, A Fire Left Inside of Me. If the first two singles are anything to go by, the album promises to take Krissanthemum’s manically colourful sound and focus into what they describe as “an honest and heartfelt album filled with growth and excitement.”
As the first instalment of a new project with our friends at Drunk With Love Records, Krissanthemum recently filmed two alfresco sessions in Inwood, Manhattan, NYC. Both of the songs are from their previous album, Kaleidoscope Drive, and sees Lassiter strip back their complex pop sound to just acoustic guitar and their wonderfully expressive vocals.
Krissanthemum also has two shows planned to celebrate the release of A Fire Left Inside Me:
March 1st Saperstein Estate, New Jersey with Bluffs, johnnycola, and Noods
March 5th Knitting Factory, Brooklyn with Long Neck, Algebra II, and Jake Bellissimo
A Fire Left Inside Me on February 22nd. Pre-order it now via the Krissanthemum Bandcamp page.
